Information about Aliexpress order

My aliexpress parcel has arrived in Pakistan (Karachi IMO) but instead of sending the parcel to DMO Peshawar they have send it to DMO Karachi.
Its the first time this happens with me i ordered tons of items from Aliexpress and when the parcel arrive in Karachi IMO they always send to Peshawar DMO....Its the first time they send it to Karachi DMO.
Now how much time it will take to deliver it to Peshawar?
Or i will never recieve it?

 

[rizwanshamim]

It will be sent to DMO Peshawar in a day or two from DMO Karachi. I have received all my items this way as I also belong to Peshawar. So don't worry

It goes from Karachi and then to anywhere else in most cases.
You're fine.

So guys I just wanted to know that if I asked the shipper to mention my item as "GIFT" will it help avoiding the custom (tax)?
I was thinking of buying a Cheap Mechanical Keyboard since it is not availabel

No, they open all packages. So no point.

Also I dont think theres a heavy duty on keyboard.
It'll be affordable IF there is any.

Okay thanks.
Can you tell me any guess about the Duty? I mean will it be around Rs.300-400 or more (or less).

I ordered a gimbal and asked the seller to mark it as gift with 20$ value. They charged 1400rs tax on 2500rs assessed value.

I think the taxes would be high on Gimbal.

Apologies for the late reply.
I was away for the time being.

However, my best guess is around 20-35%.

This might help brother, I ordered a fightstick from aliexpress, quite impressively of seller and postal services, I got it in whooping 7 days only, and when i was ordering it was afraid because of considerably large size of it and i was sure that they are going to impose some duty on it, but god saved me from the wrath of Pakistan customs, no duty was imposed .. but but one of my friend ordered a stick also he was imposed 1500 duty on it .. so be aware its all upon the mood of the custom officer.

The hosting site just doesn't care much for the embeds on forum it seems.

I second the officers mood.
