Fortunately, I haven't had that before. I've ordered one frameset and two wheelsets without prepaid tax so far, but they were UD matte.

Thanks for your answer! This was what I suspected. Swedish law is pretty hard on taxes even if it seems like there are a lot of people on Swedish forums which have no problems I suspect that this have changed and even if it hasn't I am really paranoid and it would SUCK so hard getting hit by 25+48% on a already pretty expensive frame. 350 bucks for a frame is great but the shipping which soon is around 200 (and this shippingcost is included in the 25+48%!) is starting to flirt with insanity. If it was 350+30 I could take the risk of being hit with taxes.
Yoeleo (german warehouse) sells frames for 850 euros, it will either be Yoeleo or just some random shit for now. Sad thing I really need something, my current frame is toasted both front and back. Take care of your things because you don't want to buy stuff at this moment.

350 for a frame? I fear that may not be very high quality.
FYI: Light Carbon also has distributers in The Netherlands (https://jmcarbonframe.nl) and Denmark (https://frcarbonframe.dk), but they seem to add a large margin on top of the price you get from LC directly.

;D It was actually Light carbon which offered 007-V (the lightweight) for 350. Dengfu and Hongfu took almost 500. Velobuild seems to be one of the cheaper ones and you can get a frame for 350 there. Sorry but I find you thinking a little bit funny here, if it is more expensive you are starting to touch the prices from wellknown brands like Ribble, Dolan and Decathlon.
