From my reading of the international shipping terms, it appears that only
books*
DVDs
music
VHS videos
can be shipped outside the US to most addresses. Shoes can be shipped to a number of countries, SoKo not being one of them. |

I received my new pair of levis from amazon yesterday, no problem. Took 8 working days. I was expecting a month. |

Were they taxed in any way? |

didn't appear to be...unless that was included in the shipping price. about $55 australian for the jeans and another $55 for the shipping. Sounds pricey, but then again, a good pair of levis costs about $100 australian back home anyway.
I don't mind paying extra for levis as they are the only jeans that seem to fit me... although the quality seems to have dropped a bit... |

So you can get clothes through fucking Amazon! It's bullModedit then?
$100? Unless they were something different, you would pay a similar price in Sinyongsan Levis shop. Maybe save about e man won. I dont know if I would use it in this case.
I'll check out these other sites. Victorias secret if I'm feeling sexy.  |

Careful ordering stuff online to be delivered by mail to Korea. Korean customs loves taxing and holding parcels. I know I few people who've had to pay to get their stuff released (and it's not cheap). |
