Like this: buying a bunch of anime goodies (plushies, games, merch), Japanese knives & second hand electronics from Akihabara in which all sum up to ¥290,000 in customs value from a consolidated package.

    Varies a lot based on country of origin and destination.

    Here in norwegialand we have VAT between 15 and 25% depending on the type of goods when buying domestically as a private person. When buying something from abroad instead, such as online shopping, this is replaced by a customs fee/tariff of about the same amount. There are exceptions and caveats, but that’s the gist of it.
