On April 24, I received a package from China with 4 small motors for models ordered on March 26, paid €. 6.30.To my great surprise, the postman asked me for €. 2.82 (40%-45% of the value) without being able to explain the reason to me.I contacted the seller, who replied that "with EU countries, additional taxes might be charged".In my cart I had also ordered a SATA-USB converter from another Chinese seller, who canceled my order because of customs problems.In the past I have bought products of the same kind from China several times through eBay without problems or additional costs.Has anything changed in purchases between Italy and China?If I place a new order, could this happen again?Thanks.
