^^^LailaT, i read on the ebay forum that it doesn't matter whether it is marked gift or used item. AND DHL, UPS and FEDEX charge some kind of fee, not sure how calculated for "managing" the package through customs. (see post 11 for UPS fees discussion http://forum.purseblog.com/ebay-forum/worried-about-ups-crazy-charges-369128.html) however, i have no direct experience so others will know more.
