I've searched and Googled, but I'm obviously not using the right terms.

Where do I find out info on what I can and cannot have shipped here, what'll be taxed or tariffed or feed or whathaveyou?

I'm mostly worried about buying a camera on eBay and having it sent and also having powder chemicals sent for film developing.

I remember reading a post by a guy about having his vitamins, some of them anyway, confiscated from the box.

Any info?

Anything that has a value over 100,000 won will require a duty paid. Sometimes pills are hard to get through customs. I have seen some make it, and others not. If you are having a package sent from a friend or loved one, just have them right gift on the receipt and the value under $100. If something is shipped through Ebay, you may have to pay the duty.
