I've got a package coming into the DR which I paid US$350 for. I'm now due to pay customs duty of RD $2907. This is via EPS, and it arrived in the DR on the 28th of December.
Thats almost $100 in taxes, or 30% of the cost of the item. The package had a receipt with it from Amazon. Does anyone know if I can get this customs duty re-evaluated? Is this a typical amount?

P.S. This is what I ordered: Amazon.com: Pleo Dinosaur - A Ugobe Life Form: Electronics
