I buy & sell guitars, in the US.
Here is (a part of ) what I place in all of my sales listings.
"Non U.S. buyers are responsible for any customs duties, fees, and/or taxes."
Now, having said this, I do not believe that it is incumbent upon Hisashi, or any other seller to inform potential buyers, concerning the possibility, or likely nature of import fees.
I believe as others have stated, that the title of this thread is unfair to Hisashi, and the article title should be deleted, and changed to something much less inflamatory.
If the buyer is uninformed, Hisashi should not be paying for it with his good reputation.
