The commission is MORE then what I paid for pre-ordering the CD itself !!<\/p>\n<p>After the delivery guy arrived and told my parents, who were home at the time,  &#8220;Oh yeah, i can&#8217;t deliver this unless you pay me 80NIS&#8221;, I had to spend more then 20 minutes on the phone line as the costumer service employee, kept me on hold multiple times, and demanding I pay for their &#8220;services&#8221; and complain later or else I wouldn&#8217;t get my package !<\/p>\n<p>Israeli laws and regulations, states that you&#8217;re only paying customs and sales tax if your package&#8217;s price exceeds 200NIS (44$), Mine was 38$. But apparently DHL find it appropriate to screw up citizens and charge them up with extra commissions starting at 2$.<\/p>\n<p>If you would have send my package with another carrier like Fedex, or international airmail through USPS, I would have got it FASTER (the package was delayed in DHL tel-aviv facility for almost a week now), and in fact, in the past, I have gotten CD&#8217;s faster, more reliable, and without the headaches that DHL caused me.<\/p>\n<p>This whole fiasco is really outrageous.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know if I&#8217;ll ever see those 20$ that DHL forced me to pay them.<br \/>\nTheir costumer support said that I&#8217;ll need to form a complaint, but from my experience they won&#8217;t be so willing to part from money they took away from me, especially since they refused to deliver the package unless I pay them, even though they admitted in my phone call that I was right, and the threshold for taxes is 200NIS.<\/p>\n<p>so PLEASE, do not be in business with DHL.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To: Weird Al Yancovik Customer Support please stop working with DHL !
