So I'm leaving Korea at the end of the month and would like to take my 1 year old 32" PAVV with me, any advice as to the best method of shipping? Also would Canada customs ding me with duty? I tried the search function but all I got was a blank screen.

If u still have the packing box for it or can get one I suggest you take it as over-sized luggage. But, i don't know what it would cost though i see other people doing it so it won't be like you're the first guy. 32' isn't that big.

If you lived here for more than a year then no duties. Will it work with NTSC back home though? Have you researched that part or else you`ll just have an expensive monitor.

Koreans use NTSC....also if your going to get HD, the cable box will use HDMI, DVI, or Component so he's perfectly fine.


I'm thinking of getting an HD tv here myself....I really want a DLP though.

Do you have the receipt and have you owned it more than 6 months? if so you won't have to pay duty.
