This is going to get interesting when the bikes arrive and there is no one to do the paperwork. All right, so how do I start a brokerage?
$3500? Should have just bought something here. What the customs are depends on how the shipper filed the paperwork. It might fly under the radar...or not.
GL. You opened a can of worms.
