I'm not trying to cheat on taxes, it's because if the product costs US$50 or less, than it's supposed to be tax free import, but people get taxed even for that for some reason, it's not trying to cheat on taxes, it's more like working around shitty shipping and importing systems. 

Whatever your intent is, and however bad the tax system is, trying to get around import tax is a surefire path to jail (at least in the US, idk so much about Brazil).

I live in Brazil and the state of the current market on GPUs and RAM are not good and importing these would be even worse, I'm looking for a way of importing cheap parts like good cases, 1TB hard drives or mother boards that normaly cost around $50 - $60 that translates to R$200 - R$260, but everyone complains about the import taxing that corresponds to 60% of the product's price meaning a $50 / R$200 mother board can cost around $80 / R$320 wich is way too much for a budget mother board, so I'm looking for ways to get around such import taxing since a lot of people around here says it's like a gamble.

You shouldn't try and cheat the taxes, it's illegal.
