It's a little bit cheaper than Gmarket to buy a Galaxy Gear Fit off Amazon and have it shipped here, but I'm wondering if there will be any import fees or taxes (it's under $107 for the Gear Fit and also shipping included). My understanding is that electronics under about U.S. $130 or $140. Anyone have any ideas or tried.

I realize I can send it to a friend and have it sent from him/her as if it has been opened, but that's not what I prefer to do (shipping will then jack the price up since Amazon is a major player in shipping and thus gets big time discounts).

I think the tax-free limit is 150,000w so be sure to check the exchange rate and leave a little wiggle room.
