    I've been wanting to order car audio items from abroad through online shopping but always had a second thought. Is it safe? Is it door to door delivery? Will there be additional charge for custom duty? Need your help.

    Its door to door but customs will always charge taxes. Best is NOT to undervalue it. DHL just informed me that the tax is 1,720 pesos. Not bad for a almost $400 item.

    I've done this before. Aliexpress (which is owned by alibaba.com) is very safe with 100% money back guarantee. This is the king of ecommerce.

    Thanks a lot. So it's the courier who relays the tax and
    not Aliexpress. When is the tax known? Is it before the start of shipment or upon arrival of item?

    When the items clear customs that is when the amount is known. When you're tracking your parcel in DHL you can specify sms and email alerts when certain milestones are reached. In my case I ticked customs clearance and final delivery. I got the alert called up their hotline and got the exact amount. I readied it for their courier. Received my item yesterday (it looks fantastic and I might get another one) and will have it installed in the weekend.

    Thanks again. I have viewed MaxAudio.com and planned to place order? Any news about this entity? Is it safe to do transactions with them?
