dirtypot Posted April 1, 2015 Share Yes, just the shipping will be free. But with the state of our wonderful postal system you may want to reconsider. Free shipping almost never means with a courier - 99% of the time it'll be the cheapest available. You'll still pay duties and VAT - at a rough guess 20% and 14%. That's if it ever arrives...Is the saving worth it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaper Posted April 1, 2015 Share That is correct.. if they state free shipping then it is included in the sale price (they do not charge extra for shipping as some will do) and it will be sent by China mail and then into the SAPO system.... so expect a long wait for goods to arrive this way ... 3 weeks or more!!! You will still have to pay the usual duties (approx 15-16%) once it arrives in SA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
