    :frown:
    ගෙන්නුවේ මෙන්න මේ ටික,
    Xbox 360 S 250GB Console
    Xbox Kinect Sensor
    Xbox Controller Charging Dock
    Xbox MW limited version Bluetooth Head Set
    Xbox Speed Wheel

    Item ටිකේ value ඒක, 540$..Shipping වලටත් 147$ pay කලා :angry:

    There is nothing to do,as not like regular post you can't negotiate with custom officer. DHL take your stuff to customs and they get you the duty charge themselves and ask you to pay.So cutoms charge you the full amout.Solution is tell dhl that u do not want to pay.Ask them to send the item back.Then contact the seller and ask them to -re-ship the item by normal/register parcel post,Not TNT/DHL or FEDEX

    Now the issue is, I got them from Amazon and I use a shipping forward company to get these items here. They do not offer USPS shipping. They only offer DHL for ship these items to Sri Lanka :no:

    Duka thama Sana :( DHL hinda ubata සම්තින්ග් ekak dilawath kara ganda bari wei
    ඒක තමා බන් අවුල, මුන් මට Cargo notice ඒක දෙන්කොටවත් කිව්වේ නෑ මෙච්චර duty වැටෙයි කියල.

    sorry bro there's no way around that you have to pay.
    :no: :baffled: :(
