Hallo Everyone,
I have been looking at the GEM offers. They seem nice, but if you look at
the shipping it can be pretty high in the end (example: for the item 20$,
shipping 9$ and for Europe additional actual shipping).
I am trying to organize an bulk order for Germany, but I think I could
reship to most Europe. I am trying to get shipping free from the US, and
there would be an additional 1% or so for the money transfer (if anyone got
a better idea how to transfer the money please contact me).
Normally we would have to pay here 16% Einfuhrumsatzsteuer (ha, you get
something for nice thirty bucks on ebay, but with shipping and shipping
again and tax you easily arrive at two times or more the original amount!).
I assume, following comments on the list, that it would be possible to get
around this because the parts are used and quite old.
I am not affiliated with GEM so I can not guarantee anything. But following
this list they got mostly positive feedback so I think it is worth to go for
it.
Please contact me DIRECTLY - NOT ON THE LIST - as soon as possible if you
are interested in anything or have any questions or suggestions.
Chris (not Chris B. from GEM)
P.S.: The Newtons come without the blanks and I am not sure if the AC
adapter comes with plugs for Europe.
