  • Going across the border to buy something is completely legal. Bringing it back for resale is different. You said something you want, and then you said pretend it’s a personal item. There’s an inconsistency. If it’s something you want, then it is a personal item. As long as it isn’t illegal, you’re legally fine. That being said, there are two things to be aware of. Legality is a bit more fluid these days (especially at the border), and I’d guess you’d look and act very suspicious, which would probably end poorly for you based on the first thing.

    I did this often when I was in a country with VAT. It was cheaper to fly, buy the thing, and fly back. Or sail, which I also did.
