    Thanks a LOT! VinnyL!

    I didn't know what to do!

    I ordered a matrix APU(collectable) from the US and it arrived to my regular post office, and I was waiting for this one to arrive to the post office too, but I just red that things valued more than 22 euros are handled by GLS-Ireland :dunno:

    when they say valued do they mean price of the item only or price of the item + shipping = value of the item?

    It's most probably in Ireland- they proably do some processing in Germany since that's where it entered the EU.

    how fast do they deliver?

    Since it's in Ireland, it should take long right?

    btw, I payed 216$ for the product(headphones)

    do you think they'll hit me hard the the dutiy/delivery(by gls-Ireland)?

    if it's over $50, you have to pay duty on it.

    Don't expect your headphones anytime soon - GLS handle all the stuff that gets shipped USPS, and they are a bunch of total retards.
    They don't answer their phone (EVER!), and they are nearly as incompetent as NTL.

    cyberghost, it depends on how much they declared it for, and if they declared it as a gift or merchandise.

    if its declared for the full amount, and merchandise then your in trouble, with around €70 being added to your bill (22% + GLS €9.95 fee).

    GLS arn't that bad really, just USPS tracking program is a pile a crap
