Thank you.
winner is responsible for any taxes/customs levied by their home country

whatever they charge you, it will be less than a new jem.

YES $25 US

Its stated in the rules you will have to pay import tax or custom or whatever your country requires in order for you to receive the item. I recently imported a guitar from new york it was valued at $1000 cost me around $250 AUS for all the taxes and fumigation cost etc... Australia has one of the tightest customs in the world. Especially when it regards wood etc... We don't like foriegn bugs etc...

Its so worth the tax. imagine paying $500 for a JEM its so worth it. You could even sell it and make your money back, but I wont be selling it thats for sure. I'll be giving it plenty of hard love.

If you win it, will you have to pay tax on it when you bring it back to IE?

Winning a Jem will make you less homesick

and don't forget about the other fabulous prizes!

You have to go to this link and click the "request to join" hyper text and ask to join the group. Once you have done that Kenny will put the "might win a Jem" under your name.
