does anyone have any advice on the possibilities of importing wine into singapore. how much tax is involved? is it worthwhile, given teh crazy local prices for even the most humble drop?

Import costs for wine

Via air-freight, add about S$18.00 per bottle to your export price.
Via sea-freight, depending on your total quantity. A pallet of about 50 cases, you'll add about S$12 per bottle to your export price.
Excluding the correspondence & paperwork involved. Not forgetting any breakages in your shipment.

Do you think it is worth it?

Email customs, they are usually pretty quick to respond, and will give you all the right info you need. If i rememebr correctly i think the duty on wine is $8.50 per litre, up to 10 litres. But check.
