I arranged for a business gift for a company in the Middle East and paid $30 in shipping fees online, thinking that would be the end of it. Soon after, I was inundated with emails from the delivery service, demanding an additional $20 in customs fees. I chose this service believing they were experienced with international shipments, and I expected accurate delivery charges at the time of the order. I’m also concerned about my details being shared with the carrier. There was no clear indication that extra customs fees could arise or that I would be dealing directly with the carrier instead of the company. Initially, I thought the emails demanding extra payment were a scam. I reached out to inquire about its legitimacy and have yet to receive a response. After eventually calling, I discovered this is a common occurrence, and it was my responsibility to handle it. Naturally, I won't be using this service again for such matters.
