Used? Try sending some new ones without wearing them yourself sometime and see how much in duties they charge.

I'm truly sorry Tonchi, I just couldnt help myself with that last comment.

Yes, it's true that there are customs fees on a ball of earwax nowdays. It's like that on the other (corrupt ) third world countries that I send packages to as well. Some have disappeared altogether. It's so frustrating that I dont notify the receiver when something is sent anymore.

Some unscrupulous people will take most anything being shipped in from the US. Even if the items have no commercial value. Bastards.

When I rule the world there will be some rather drastic changes though. All underpants imported into the Philippines (used or virgin) will be duty free.

Nam palameee....oo-oo!
