Long story short, i got the package with declared value of 22 000 rubles (russian currency) which is equals to 24000 pesos or 549$US, it is a military binoculars with night vision (gift from russian military guy to my husband), so it is being held by customs in Santiago and they charge me 28000 pesos of impuestos, here comes the question - WTF?! How the hell i have to pay more than the cost of the item of taxes? Can anybody enlighten me of what to do? Tried to reach aduanas by phone but after they redirect me to an agent nobody is on that line. Tried to figure out how to send it back with no success. Here they say guy in russia has to do something, and guy in russia says ups told him i have to do something. So its like a damned circle.
Please somebody let me know who can help me to figure it all out, i cant pay 600$ of taxes its just ridiculous.
