What about customs?
We mark international packages as containing "Books--New" and state the cost of
the books on the customs documentation; if the order is a gift, the package is marked
"Gift," but the cost of the books is still stated on the customs form.
Currently, we are not able to describe the contents in any other way.
Any customs or import duties are levied once the package reaches your country. Additional
charges for customs clearance must be borne by you; we have no control over these charges
and cannot predict what they may be. Customs policies vary widely from country to country;
you may want to contact your local customs office for further information.
