Anyone had any experience buying goods from China? After searching ages i've found some BMW emblems on ebay in the size i want 20-25mm, the only issue is they're in China! i've never bought anything overseas but although i can pay by PayPal the ad states the price will not cover the duty/customs to the postal country. Makes me think what da fak custom on some tiny winy badges and what am i going to be billed by HM customs for 10 times the amount etc etc..
Other than that the site seems secure and safe to buy from.

I've bought some items from China, Hong Kong, etc. from E-bay and they are generally as described and arrive speedily; as Alex said, they usually mark them 'Gift' so they slip through customs OK.
