Ordering rtf online need some help(customs)

tej · April 26, 2013, 02:07:41 PM

Hi guys,

I am going to order an rtf from amazon! This is my first international order. I have read its not easy to order an rtf with 2.4 ghz transmitter as might caught up with customs. I have asked the seller to declare it as a gift and send the invoice with the parcel. The seller has agreed on this! The rtf itself doesn't cost much, it's below 100$ with shipping cost!

I need some advice. Has anyone tried this? Need some help!

To answer, first tell us what RTF item you ordered or are ordering.

Ohh!!

Actually I asked sellers in india. They were selling hubsanx4 for 6k and v939 for 5k. I'll try posting! Hope you are talking about new ONE!
Also I got a mail from HK. They said all items are send as gift. I am thinking of buying v929 for 65 dollars with extra battries for 20min flight time!

if I don't get a decent price here.

But my question was how does it work out. I mean the asking sellers to declare it as a gift and sending invoice with the package?

That's a good offer! I'll try posting for walkera LB v2 as its bigger and more stable and flies well in wind!
Actually i was having problem with paypal not accepting my card. I wanted to buy from banggood. I don't want to risk by directly ordering
