Re: Buying a clarinet from overseas, what have I done?

1. I bought a Bb clarinet from Dawkes Music in the U.K. and was able to sign up to prepay the import duty as part of the transaction. The amount added was small.

2. Your state's rules and collection practices may differ, but I paid the state sales tax (referred to as a "use tax" when applied to otherwise untaxed online purchases) with my annual state income tax return. Not a big deal. It was self-reported -- no one sent me a letter or knocked on my door.

3. Would you have paid an extra $1500 just to get a warranty on the instrument? If not (and I hope not), don't worry about the warranty now.
