I've run into that too. Most countries do not charge import/export duties for repair items or for returned items. But they don't trust the shipper to be honest about it, so in practice, this waiver is never realized. It's frustrating.
Beyond that, I always wince when sending certain things to the repair shop. The ones I have the most trouble letting go of are cars and electronic devices. If I'm really familiar with something, I usually have my own way of handling it and sometimes I find myself kind of picky about it. So if I have a time crunch and cannot deal with it myself, it's really hard for me to let go of it and trust it to a shop.
