It's been over a year since I wrote here about my first purchase in StrawberryNET.com. At that time, the package was taxed and the tax was 100% reimbursed by StrawberryNET.com, as Another article reported that. Since then there had made new purchases, I ended up making some trips because they had the opportunity to buy perfumes abroad for prices slightly lower than the StrawberryNET.com.
But as StrawberryNET.com it seems like “missed me” and the first months of 2010 sent an e-mail promotion, Always near the end of the month, offering a discount 15%, plus a free makeup kit valued at U.S. $ 30,00, addition to the traditional discount 5% na purchase 3 or more products and 1 a 10% discount as extra bonus loyalty.
So, in one of these times I decided to take advantage of the promotion. I chose the traditional masculine fragrance Armani 100ml (Giorgio Armani Armani Eau De Parfum Spray 100ml/3.3oz). The kit is the makeup of toast Pretty Fashion MakeUp Kit 62201: 2x Powder 2x Blush 20x Eyeshadow 5x Lip Color 3x Applicator –
. With the discount 15% e but 1% Discount for loyalty, The total price came to £ 170,60, a great price, because only the Giorgio Armani Armani Eau De Parfum Spray 100ml/3.3oz in local stores costs about £ 400,00.
The purchase was made on the day 27/06/2010 and shipped the day following. Reportedly was received in Brazil 12/07 and em 15/07 was already delivered, this time without any tax. I was surprised at how quickly positive, because the whole process took about 2 Only weeks.
The box StrawberryNET.com, and the other time, shaft Sweden. In the written statement came contents “Cosmetics”, or declared value “BRL 170”, and reported as “Gift” (present). If the IRS had opted to tax probably believe the declared value, that the actual value is, the charge 60% and I would have to seek reimbursement as did the other time. The good side is to buy assured knowing that taxing the tax will be refunded. And when it comes taxed, better still, it does not have the inconvenience of having to go get the mail and pay, to be repaid only after.
The box StrawberryNET.com once again came up with a bow, perhaps to give every impression of being truly a gift, but we know that does not help much when they resolve tax. Inside the box the perfume came with a small box wrapped in gift paper also.
Like the other time, the Giorgio Armani Armani Eau De Parfum Spray 100ml/3.3oz has all the features of the original, so I have no reason to doubt that he really is. He came properly packaged in cardboard box with all the original features, which was wrapped in a plastic, also with all features of the original sealing it.
O kit maquiagens Pretty Fashion MakeUp Kit 62201: 2x Powder 2x Blush 20x Eyeshadow 5x Lip Color 3x Applicator – This was for my girlfriend, we liked him a lot. It has several components, but it's still very compact thanks to the various levels of case.

Speech, dear!
Very good your blog!
I ended up buying the StrawberryNET and I am waiting for the arrival of my perfumes! I confess that I was also suspicious of the price. It, even before I analyze the authenticity of products, pq has not yet arrived, I say that the appearance is almost impossible to distinguish a good fake from an original. I say this because in New York bought a perfume fake just like my original, and I never knew which was which. No final, fixing the fake was smaller, but the box and bottle strictly equal.
When I get my perfumes can give you a grounding on what I thought.
In most, great job with the blog and a great analysis of our taxes, made by you in another post about StrawberryNET. Share their opinions on the PT, its mobsters, our tax burden and Lula!
Is quiser, me add no msn, always show up there: [email protected]
Grateful and sucesso.
Hugs, Bruno.
Ola loss, whether a perfume is fake or not just send a picture with the bar code and lot number and manufacturer for.
I would like to know more about the refund of tax. How is this done exactly?
Excellent blog.
Hug
Luciano,
Take a look at another article on Strawberrynet that explains it.

Hello! In this article you quoted had the opportunity to buy perfumes cheaper than Strawberry. Where did you purchased?
Olá Franklin,
My last two purchases before this article was in a free shop from Guarulhos airport and a shopping Barcelona.
Already bought several things in and recommend. Today I did not buy more because they have cheaper sites. Always accompany the your posts. But I would like to comment something I have seen in various forums: the issue of tribute. Many people complain about being taxed and there complains about the government – there they remember what kind of country they live – but good, import without paying tax is crime, so involving the IRS! What often occurs, and it is not news to anyone, It is that not enough people there to check all packages arriving in Brazil and with this many people do not pay tax when they should and, unfortunately, sometimes there are people who should not pay tribute, They end up having to pay, to be something random. We know we have a lot to change in Brazilian tax system, but I do not imagine that this will happen. However, ask paid tax refund is to ask them to stop sending products to Brazil, What ends up happening to some sites, or behold the most expensive product – if you look this site prices to other countries that summer are cheaper. Oh I will speak: It is fair to ask reimbursement!… Read more »
What's wrong in complaining to pay tax? Tribute 60% it's cool (It is in the law) that is immoral. Brazilian pay more tax than you should for the service of crap that is offered. It's the price of a bloated and corrupt state. I know no other country in the world that has such a high rate. Claim is still right for all. There is crime does not pay tax when the IRS releases the package without tax. There is nothing wrong with asking for tax refund when the store itself offers this option. The vast majority of stores makes it clear that not responsible for import tax, but Strawberrynet makes clear that the tax refund courtesy, so why not ask? The product is more expensive it? You can stay, no problem about it too. There are people who prefer to pay more for the assurance that the tax, if any, It will be reimbursed by the store. Others prefer to try their luck and buy at other stores that charge cheaper, but do not reimburse taxes. The day the store find that does not pay more offer such free her to offer. But while offering, It is right and fair to ask… Read more »
