My Mom was buying used car and selling them in Gabon for a while, she told me she always doubled her money but the real issue is the bribing, it is a real pain in the ass.
Thankfully my family is deeply connected and we have family members working at the customs but my mom still had to give something.
The thing is there is no "approximate" price when it comes to bribing;it depends on what you are trying to get into the country, usually the more expensive your stuff is the more they'll make you pay.
As a foreigner I would strongly recommend you to make a deal with someone important at the customs so that your stuff comes out without any trouble, remember the police is not going to be on your side so it's all about making them happy.
Hmm that actually gave me an idea...
