Ordering from ebay

[Max66]

Does anyone have experience ordering from ebay? I'm looking to order some vitamins and health and beauty products.  From a U.K  seller. Curious about customs ,their tax . reliability of the mail and time frame. 

Thanks

I order from iHerb without any problems. Keep the order under $100 and you shouldn't have to pay any duty. I never have in over 5 years. https://th.iherb.com/

Yes, I ordered a pair of Sandals a few weeks ago.

They cost £70, DHL was £20.

 

However, I failed to see the additional £70 for tax!

 

Came within a week, & they're very comfortable.

 

Use iherb, for Vitamins instead.

Never, ever use DHL or Fedex, almost guaranteed you will pay duty.

Thanks for the advice. Will avoid DHL and Fedex. So regular mail was reliable?

Never had a problem. If you order from iHerb it will normally take about 3 weeks.
