sooooooooooooooooooo an update.
I went to SARS and was told that there was nothing they could do, send it back to customs 90 - 120 days for them to place a value on it and also no guarantee that they will drop the value. I got hold of a helpful woman who said that more than likely it is listed as a luxury item and falls into a different vat and duties bracket. I thought that I was screwed and was sulking till she calls me back 5 minutes later after looking at the scans.
Vintage screwed up. They listed the shipping invoice as 21 licence plate lights with a value of $840.00.
Soooooooooo, I've gone back to vintage, hoping for some sort of resolve to this matter as I had to maar pay the bucks as leaving anything at SAPO is just asking for it to be stolen. I'm planning on buying a few more things from VS, but hulle moet reg maak met my.
