Sorry if this is not the right thread.

I had ordered a laptop from ebay.in and it was shipped from outside Mumbai to my Mumbai address. The laptop cost was something like 23.5 K inc shipping. It was couriered by Bluedart. Today i was supposed to receive delivery but it did not and when i called them i got to know that i need to pay octroi on the laptop when it is delivered.
The charges are somewhere around 1413.xx Rs. I actually did not expect octroi being slapped but i cannot complain much since the ebay website and the seller too had mentioned that octroi might be applicable.
Is this normal. Sorry if i sound dumb and complaining.

I think i will need to consider the octroi part too the next time i order something from ebay.

Is the octroi in effect when we order from HS18, Infibeam, amazon.in (non amazon fulfilled) etc?

AFAIK anything new that comes into mumbai, except those carried by a person for his own use, is applicable for octroi... Thats my understanding... Others correct me if am wrong..

^ post in general talk. You will get more replies there. Ebay is going easy on coupons nowadays so hardly anyone visits this thread now.
