Ok guys need some help (Ive never purchased from America before)

Im buying about 8 shirts from an online store, which Im paying $15 a shirt.

So If Im buying items with a total of $120 + $14.50 shipping from what Ive read on some of your posts, I wont be paying any tax or duties? because its under $1000.

Is this correct?

Yes this is correct.
Also for people wanting car parts I suggest JEGS Performance Auto Parts - Holley - Billet Specialties - Edelbrock - MSD - Moroso - Mr Gasket
Same prices as Summit but faster postage, cheaper postage and they don't advertise items that are special order and take 5 weeks to get in, grrrrr.

I'm looking at getting a Harley softail imported from the states pretty soon. A good one here goes for about 25 grand, over there you can pick a good one up for 15 I've been told. I will be looking into that next year. I would hate to see the import tax on that though, worth looking into still.
