Price Disparity Between US and South Korea

Korean distributors frequently apply significant markups to Peak Design products. Purchasing directly from US retailers like REI or the Peak Design US webstore is often 20% to 30% cheaper, even after accounting for international shipping. By using a freight forwarder like comGateway, you can access a tax-free us address in Oregon, which eliminates US sales tax at checkout.

Solving the Checkout Wall with BuyForMe

A common issue for residents in South Korea is the "Checkout Wall." Major US outdoor retailers often block international credit cards or cancel orders that are sent to known logistics hubs. This means your attempt to shop us store deals might be rejected immediately.

The solution is our BuyForMe service. This proxy shopping option involves us purchasing the item on your behalf using a US-issued credit card. This is the safest way to guarantee your order is processed without cancellation. If you are unsure how to start, visit the FAQ or the BuyForMe service help center.

Import Tax and Duties for South Korea

When importing goods into South Korea, you must consider the import tax. For personal imports from the USA, the "De Minimis" threshold is typically $200 USD. If your Peak Design order exceeds this value, you will be responsible for customs duties and VAT. You can read more about how to manage import tax on our blog.

Always ensure your personal customs clearance code (PCCC) is ready to avoid delays with an international shipping service like comGateway.

Securing Your Order Today

Inventory for the 45L model is moving fast in 2026. If you wait for local Korean retailers to restock, you risk missing the current production cycle entirely. Delaying your purchase often leads to higher prices as supply chains tighten.
