Hey Skunks, There was a time a similar topic was posted here. At the time (I think a year ago) there was no duty imposed on books and DVDs. I would like to ship one via Posta. The delivery time is not an issue but any extra cost beyond the shipping fee is my concern. Anyone shipped recently? Regards, Joseph.

Havent paid duty on books yet. On Wednesday, 8 April 2015, Joseph Tintale via skunkworks < skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> wrote:

If you're buying for your reading only I'd encourage kindle editions and you wouldn't have to worry about taxes or any other cost for that matter. Plus you could read from your phone, computer or the kindle device itself. regards, J@m3s Sent from a mobile device On Apr 8, 2015 11:00 PM, "Joseph Tintale via skunkworks" < skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> wrote:

Some people like paperbacks and advising him to buy kindle books is not advice at all from what he asked. Joseph - I have bought books several times and they often deliver via DHL and I have never been asked to pay additional taxes. ./Ok3ch On Thu, Apr 9, 2015 at 5:02 PM, Alvin Jason Ochieng via skunkworks < skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> wrote:

Found out there actually is a tax, but it's quite low so they don't charge if its like 1 book. If buy and ship many at once they might, but its quite low. I paid around 300 for two books worth around $70. Regards, John K. On 10 April 2015 at 23:20, Okechukwu via skunkworks < skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> wrote:
