Hello,
This will sound dumb to most of you but I'm not in Israel so my
situation might be different.
Does anyone here has experience sending servers (e.g. Dell PowerEdge
860 rack-mounted) TO the US?
We have an opportunity to buy a few second-hands on a bankruptcy
fire-sale and wonder how much would it cost (tax-wise) to just pack
them with me when I visit there later this month.
The sale closes tomorrow.
Thanks,

Yes, I did this once. It was a Sparc machine that we installed in
Israel, and then I took with me to the US to be installed.
When we arrived I approached the first customs officer and told him
about it. He asked whether he could worship the Sun (did a couple of
actual bows - jokes by a customs officer were so outside of my field of
experience that I totally failed to get the joke), and then waved us
through, and that was it.
Of course, that was pre-9/11.
