I work for one of the top 4 worldwide express and I know what I am talking about.
All DVDs and cds (all multimedia) should pass through the general security for a check up and they will charge you on it.
Any item that have a commercial value you pay customs tax on it.In this case it's 5%.
Only in one condition you won't pay the taxes,if the mail was sent as a document.But this won't happen if you are sending it by DHL FedEx TNT or UPS even Aramex.

once i shipped 1 game and the second time i shipped 2 games
(initially my ps3 didnt come up with games because it had something bluray software dvd instead so i had to buy a game fast:P)

So can I rent a game from some shop in Lebanon instead of buying it from the first time? IF yes, how much does the rental cost and for how much is the rental period?

That depends, each store has it's policies, most of them, for a starter you have to at least buy a game from their store, then you'll start trading the game of your choice for about 30 or 40$.

The period is specified by each store, some of them will give you a week, some others will give you a month of rental.

That's awesome news. I hope this idea develops by the time i get my PS3 :)

i heard that charcutier aoun jeita branch is giving a year 's rent for 70$ and then when u give back the game they give u 20$ so it would be 50$ for a year 's time.
( thats what i have been told so i ll make sure its true very soon i mean renting the game for a year for 50$ is gr8 !)

tol3et eno u buy the game for 75 $ and then u can trade it ma3 ghayra he will take your game for 20$ .
