You'll get taxed if you send "luxury goods". Matter of fact, one of my cousins in Nepal had to pay taxes on a pair of Nike Sneakers that his brother (my other cousin) had sent from the states a couple years ago.

 I sent it thru USPS long time back, i took insurance as well. and yeah they take tax in Nepal, i think it was  Rs. 1000-1500 then, not sure how much they charge now. but USPS costs me less than $100 and with insurance i can be assured :)
