Thanks, ppalmer. So that means small Ebay purchases every so often for picks, strings, tuners, straps, etc. will not be assessed a 5% duty.

for any orders to Qatar Thomann charge 40 euros, so if you make a large order it is well worth it. If you keep the cost of the order below 3000qar then there is no import duty at all.

I only once had to pay duty (200qar) on an order which was over 6500qar. I ordered a shed load of stuff for my band.

DHL normally deliver the item directly to your address, if however customs are unsure what it is, it will end up at Q-post. Been there a few times. The best time to go is 3:30pm it is dead in there around that time..

ppalmer: Have you had to pay a 5% Qatar import fee on your orders from Germany?

I was mistaken. I had used Leihinstrumente.com (Germany) in the past ******* http://www.leihinstrumente.com/Guitars/Acoustic-Guitars/CORT-EARTH-MINI-TRAVEL.html ********* Good selection, good prices, and good service. Thomann.de also looks very good.

I have used Thomann.de once before and they are excellent, very fair international shipping prices. Thanks.

There is the Yamaha music shop 51 East at Lagoona Mall which is the largest music shop in town (they have smaller shops in City Centre Mall and Al Jarir Bookshop). Al Badie music on Al Muthaf St. They are all disgustingly overpriced though. They dont even give discount for ex demo instruments (!!)

If you are happy to wait a few days for something decent at a realistic price then order fomr Thomann.de they ship within 8 days. I use them all the time they are excellent!!

White Gold Music in Sharjah is the shop I use in the UAE -- a small shop with good selection and fair prices. They might be willing to ship to Qatar.
