Winch group buy

[BigRAWesty]

I regreat to inform you top blokes that I've been had. The company I was in talks with quoted $100 postage via sea and they stated that this included customs clearances, certificates and everything needed to get them in..
Well I've had my doubts, and today its rang true. For the last 2 weeks I've been trying to confirm this cost and today I've recived confirmation that the true cost is about $6 /kg. Don't need to be smart to realise that doesn't equal $100, closer to $2500.

So unfortunately this is no longer viable as it pushes the winches around $600 a unit..

So for if you guys could please supply the details via pm ill refund you cash.

Again, I'm extremely sorry, and very embarrassed about this situation.

Any way of getting them here thru another company??

Its not the postage costs that's the issue. That's the $100.. its all the stuff I was told it included, like clearances, treatment, taxes, handling etc.
So no matter what company you go threw were going to hit the same wall..

What if we get it smuggled here?? I have a mate that is a marine engineer and a cousin that works on a ship maybe we can do some illegal immigrant type of thing, only problem is they always dock in Freeo lol

Seriously tho have you called customs to ask how much they charge for quarantine?? Also to beat import taxes can't you put "Gift" ??

If I had the cash I would risk it, but any order over 3 I think is regarded as intent to sell.
But I like your plan..

There has to be some sort of loop hole??!! Now i wish i listened in school and turned up to legal studies lol

What about list them as "Promotional " or wright " i'm not making any money you customs clowns!!"

[BigRAWesty]

I wish. Been talking to a few people who import for advice and or spare room...
But basically no go. If there was room it would still be a couple of grand.
