Since it is expensive stuff then u should use DHL, Fedex or others... if u want to save then normal parcel mail is like playing roulette in casino.

If I don't remember wrongly, there isn't any Luxury tax imposed for handbags in Vietnam. Presently, they Duties for branded handbags is 25% unless the bags are made from China, Japan, South Korea and ASEAN, the duties might be 0%. Vietnam imposed luxury tax like liqor, tobacco and cars only. Presently, Im working in an apparel environment and I'm in charge of the ASIA Duties and Taxes thus I didn't heard about such tax imposed.

Apart from girl friendly hotel, how about apartment from Airbnb?
There should not be a problem for gal to stay overnight right?

if you are renting the entire place like a 1 bedroom apartment, then there shouldn't be any problems. One thing to note, there are security in most apartments so be aware of lockout times or else, you might be locked out if out too late. Be sure to get security's phone number to wake them up if they fall asleep.

Wah you can dig out my older post and quote.

Yes I'm very budget on accommodation and transport when I travel.

I don't give working ladies money for shopping because I don't practice RTF.
Does that constitute as a super cheapskate?

Interesting comment (But….errrr. rather provocative no? Never mind!)

Please do remember that we are on a “cheonging” site and as such my assumption. And yes, of course we all have just regular female friends even at mongering destinations – and I don’t know about you, but my civvie friends, if they ever ask me to bring them something from overseas, they would for sure insist on paying me back for the item(s). On top of that, I would never even dream of gifting to my friends such cheap trinkets as handbags worth so little. I’d prefer to gift them other smaller but quality items even if priced reasonably.

And presuming that we ARE talking about gifts to working girls (you did also mention – “…if bring a brand new "branded" bag over as gift for VB ... few hundred that type..”), I still suggest that cash would be a better alternative. And yeah, definitely only IMHO, but to me it’s never a good idea to mix up definitions of WG’s and Friends…. Because you’ll only end up fooling yourself, and worse, her!

And do remember that it’s not a matter of “respect” but to set your own boundaries when giving cash! WG’s are used to receiving cash even when they sell their bodies – so….! On top of that, again IMHO, by giving gifts instead of cash, you are only setting up her expectations about your relationship way too high. Too easy for her to then presume that you want more than just a Client/hooker relationship when receiving gifts instead of cash – and you gotta question your own motives when only gifting such cheap trinkets. So, if you do think of her more as a friend, then isn’t it incumbent upon you to NOT give her any wrong impressions and worse, futile hope?

PS - Please note that SEAJ88 has absolutely nothing to do with me.
As far as I am concerned, he is a clone intent either on just wreaking havoc on SBF or worse, trying to somehow attach himself to me in order to pull off scams.
Please also note my signature line pointing out who I know are clones.
Thank you

Airbnb is at residences so most owners do not like occupants moving in and out and changing

Thanks.
Managed to get one, had exchanged emails and stating there will be "guest".
There is no objection.
