Is "released from customs" the last step in shipping?

Why amazon add more fees on shipping although it's free shipping?

  • hello , i tried to buy books from amazon to Cairo above 35$ . that mean they are free shipping as amazon said , but at the last step , amazon add more fees on the books price . why ? the second question , are the books arrive directly to my home or i should go to customs to receive it ? note : for Egypt , the tax of my books is 2$ but amazon add mostly 14$ more fees

  • Answer:

    Dude, I don't work at Amazon or anything, but I believe 'free shipping' only applies within the US. For Egypt, it may be adding a fee for shipping across the freakin Atlantic Ocean. As for destination, I think it arrives at whichever address you give them. Thus, it's most likely at your home.

For the same reason why facebook allows you to have free services. People visiting sites are actually money to companies.
