I would be more outraged that in this day and age you still can't buy Cuban cigars.

I think these are the national customs, you have to pay when the parts arrive. We have to pay roundabaout 65,-€ for Fedex shippment, 17% Dieseladvise (don't ask me why) and 25,-€ for the custom dues (Customs consigment and other works they must do). So altogether 102 € and a few cents. So we make a price for 100,-€ ! |

Anything on Paypal and actual total cost... There seems to be some others who have had to pay additional fees they were not expecting to.. What's the deal? Thanks Still really looking forward to acquiring this... Any updates on PayPal activation are most welcome

I know they said at some point "includes fees etc." but as an out of country customer you should know (or if you didnt, now you do hehe) that ANYTIME you purchase goods overseas and they are shipped to you, there is a customs fee charged by your home country. Additionally that fee does NOT GET BILLED until it passes through customs, at which point your shipping company provides you a service they politely like to call "forwarding". The way this "forwarding service" works is they automatically foot the bill for any customs fees incurred by your package, and then "Forward" the item to you, and the respective bill for such goods. It is virtually impossible for the Lightweight guys to know how much those customs fees will be until Fedex, ups, or whomever sends you that bill. Trust me. I have tried repeatedly to find solid information on the fees incurred for specific items, and the only way to really see exactly what the percentages and calculations are, is to get a bill. Its your country's way of saying "buy your shit from your homeland, or compensate us for sending your money elsewhere" in so many ways lol. (I mean that in the most entertaining way possible ) So in all seriousness.... As an informed customer you should know that anytime you choose to buy your toys from another country, there are a slew of fees that the sending AND receiving country all charge to you, because they can. And if you really do want it, youll pay for it! |

Only way I get around it especially when I need something from back in Aus is send the money over to my folks and have them purchase and send over for me as a gift.....Ordering from Germany and being part of the EU means no import tax on delivery

At the end of the day everybody wants "their slice" of your pie whether they deserve it or not! The trick is figuring out how to share as little as or none at all! |

With the exchange rate as it is and the lack of VAT being charged, you should get the folks to order it from over here and bring it over - they take a holiday and deliver it to you and everyone's happy!

Hey guys,
We just talked to Marc at Lightweight Titanauspuffanlagen (username: Fuchsröhre) and I think we at Massdrop can help out quite a bit with this group buy. More specifically, we can help:

For the consumer, we can help save $$ on shipping. Right now its about 100? euros total for shipping. We can arrange for the units to be shipped here to us in California all at once and then ship them back out to you. Based on the size and shape of the item, you'll definitely save a good amount. Also, we can help get a more accurate idea of what customs/duties will end up being Last edited by Massdrop; 09-20-2012 at 03:05 PM.. |
