If the buyer does not pay the latter costs, UPS's brokerage arm will look to you for those amounts. So price the sale accordingly.
If the buyer does not pay local taxes, he will not get the item. The item will be returned to the seller. There is NO WAY the seller beeing charged import duties or other taxes.
Albert - I have imported more stuff to EU that I can recall, and I was never/ever been able to reclaim the goods before paying the VAT tax and duties. There was simply NO WAY to do so.
OK, fair enough Albert. But then it seems that Fedex is trying to charge you friend for the fault of THEIR agent, who relased the stuff before collecting the taxes.
