Ich habe mich bei Massmusic mal nach den Versandkosten mit US Postal für eine Fußmaschine und einen Hocker erkundigt, da der Shop doch nochmal um einiges günstiger ist als music123. folgende Mail kam gestern Abend:
"Hello,
Shipping for the following item with USPS will be as follows:
Global Express MailT (EMS) 10 - 15 Days: $105.00
Airmail Parcel Post 14 - 20 Days: $100.00
This is just a shipping quote and does not include the price for the item
being requested.
If you wish to place an order for these items, here is how we request that
the order be placed:
It is recommended that a money order be mailed to the following address:
Massmusic
1828 E University Suite # 1
Tempe, AZ 85281
Or, If you wish to pay by credit card, we need to have the following
information copy and faxed to us at 1-425-962-4137, or if you have a digital
camera, you can take photos of the items being requested:
photo copy both sides of the credit card - image needs to be clear, and
easily readable
Form of ID with picture: example, drivers licence, Passport, etc - image
needs to be clear, and easily readable
Also, a written OK that we can process the order, and the page signed to
verify signature on the back of the credit card.
If you have a Paypal account, you may be able to submit payment through
Paypal. If you can use Paypal, please let me know before payment has been
submitted so I can get you the correct information to place an order with
us.
Or, if you have the ability to use Western Union, you can wire money to us
as we have many locations in which we can utilize.
Hope this makes sense. Let me know if you have any questions regarding this
order.
Thanks
Reade"
Also um den ganzen Spaß mal auszurechnen:
- Tama 1st Chair HT530: 114$
- Tama Iron Cobra Single Powerglide 119$
= 233$/165,85€
233$ + Zoll (3,2%) = 240,45$
240,45$ + Mwst. (19%) = 286,14$
286,14$ + Versand (100$) = 386,14$
Das sind nach heutigem Kurs (1€ = 1.4049$ --> sehr starker €) 274,85€. Rechnen wir noch pauschal mal 10€ an sonstigen Zollbarbeitungsgebüren drauf, sind wir bei 284,85€.
Hierzulande kosten die Teile 298€. Für die gut 13€ Ersparnis habe ich neben der langen Wartezeit einen riesigen Aufwand bei einem Garantiefall. Lohnen würde sich ein Import wohl nur bei Sachen wie Axis, die direkt in den USA gebaut werden.
