Doesn't the buyer pay those? I just got a customs bill for Ultimarc.

Yes, the buyer typically pays custom charges. You can call it a gift to avoid or lower the custom charges depending on the country. Technically this would be illegal, as you would be not quite telling the truth on the customs form, but I doubt anyone will come knocking on your door.

OK, thanks for the info Santoro. I put in an order for 200 brass tokens paid by credit card (sent to Tilzs). I hope I did everything right (total amount $58.01)
I didn't select any "forms" during shipping. I didn't have a clue what those numbers meant and the default was "none" so I just went with that.

Thanks for the international info. I have ordered 200 of each color/finish to be sent to Australia and paid into Tilzs' PayPal account by credit card.
As for customs (in Australia) as long as the value is under $250 (via shipping/courier companies, I think it's $400 via regular mail services) and the item is labelled gift there are no customs charges. If they are chargeable then they are paid by the receiver of the goods (I had this with my last Ultimarc order also).

Just ordered the 100 brass / 100 nickel super combo deal!
Someone should make a cheap video infomercial for these, like you see for those tacky coins on TV - but wait, there's more! Act now and get this fine hand-painted porcelein teddy bear! Yours to keep!
Maybe you should mail them out with a 'Certificate of Authenticity' ?

Just wait for Kevin Steele's review. I can see it now...
"The tokens are nice and round and shiny on both sides. The dentils are a nice addition to the back side of the coin. When inserted into the coin slot, the token falls through the mechs as it should, and a credit is registered. I personally "tested" 500 coins while playing Robotron, and only 1 token was rejected. Overall, I give these tokens my highest recommendation." ;)
