However, individual states charge sales tax. USA imports are exempt under the Section 321 de-minimas rule, up to $800 USD per day. If someone orders a large amount of LEGO from a single non-USA seller, and they ship it all in one package with a proper customs declaration form, then the Section 321 rule does not apply. The seller could, in theory, break it up into multiple packages and ship them spaced out to avoid this. Yes but... "CBP can also deny the exemption if it has reason to believe that a shipment is one of several lots covered by a single order or contract but shipped separately in order to obtain the benefits of the exemption." More interesting is then, and especially in the case of LEGO Sets, Parts or any items (Plastic Toys 950300 or 95030035), what would be the import fees in USA? Like some % for the Country, or local Sales Tax (+ duty clearance fees)?
