Custom charged on my Sugarcanes

[tm1210]

Just picked my Sugarcane 47's up from the local parcel force depot where I had to pay £37 custom charges. I ordered they myself from Hinoya through Rakuten so I'm not too pissed of as I got them fairly cheap. This is the first time I've ordered something from Japan and was wonderinfg if it works the same as getting something from the US where you can get them to mark the value down to beat customs. (I live in the UK) By the way the jeans are the fucking business! Perfect fit on me! I was worried they'd be to tight as I have a big arse and thighs and could hardly get the 47 501's on.

Cheers. Wasn't sure if it worked the same when coming from Japan. And yeah they speak english. Very helpful and friendly people. Basically said at first they didn't post outside of Japan but seeing as it was ordered through Rakuten they would send it.
