There are a pair of shoes that I really want, however they came out in 2008 so stores don't have them and eBay prices are rediculous, next to that I can't find them in my size online.
However I did find them online in my size at a very good price BUT the place is in china, but they accept American currency. So my question is, is there some kinda special shipping I have to use? And my Mom said something about a 'special tax' I have to pay at the end of the year sine I bought them from overseas?

Any info is appreciated, I already tried google and it was useless. Or I was in my searching abilities, who knows.

I bought some vintage stuff from Switzerland, still waiting on the stuff [Frown] I hope the dude isn't ripping me off. It says it went through customs though with the tracking number.

Not really worried about time or a shitty box. Also I doubt it will be fake since most everything is made in china as is.

I guess the real question is, is will I have to pay any type of special tax at the end of the year or period since its not bought in the US?

Bro I completely agree. But I can't find these shoes at a decent price online anywhere. More importantly my size, the closest I've found is a size 10.5 on eBay and they cost like $230. I can't spend that much on shoes I'm only gonna wear 10 times a year. Lol.

They are the Star Wars Boba Fett edition Nike SB Dunks. And I decided that if I can't find them in the US I don't need them. Lol.

#1 way to get fraud real easy, just be very careful with anything purchased overseas. I work at the bank so I see all kinds of shit happen. [patriot]
