Thanks TrustCash, and Damian, the purpose of this is to get AROUND any importing duties otherwise I might as well get it sent to me by FedEx. I do this all the time when buying equipment like camera's.. the person in the USA gets rid of the box, packing, etc and brings the camera with accessoires, et voila, no problemos. Now a guitar amp combo is another thing because it's quite big but if you put that in your suitcase without the original packing, make it a bit dirty etc it should be fine and what I'm paying will cover the full outbound flight probably. And a guitar amp combo isn't that heavy. But we can check the specs (size, weight) before she gets on the plane with it of course, to be sure. Do you know how much importing duties I would be charged for if sent by FedEx by the way? VAT, and ?
