Thanks for the tracking code !

I thought they sent it by FedEx. I prefer FedEx more than DHL because the tax and custom fee ratio of DHL is very high.
I need to prepare some cash for the additional costs. :yabbem:

Everyone should post if they have to pay any taxes or custom fees and how much, so the rest of us can try and prepare. I wasn't expecting any extra fees.

Super jealous of you guys who already got their lasers shipped. I'm dying of anticipation!

My PL532-700 from the previous GB was delivered by FedEx. I haven't paid anything extra.
The deliveries of DHL are nearly all taxed. Even if they can't find an invoice they put an additional fee of $50 or the package won't be delivered. I call it ransom money :(

I don't know about any extra costs? I think kevin just marked it as sample flashlight or something.

Let me know people :)

Wow extra fee's suck. I've got pretty much the same order and blord did but I got the pl405 not the pl520 and as a tripod, but I hope he doesn't send my dhl. What's the shipping time difference between dhl and fed ex?

Extra fees would certainly suck, and depending on amount can negate the benefit of the gb... too late to turn back now though. Hopefully the items will be marked as being cheap so it won't be an issue.

Wouldn't be good for me. Big order. Hope not. I didn't set anything aside for extra fees and spent exactly what I had for personal gift money from Xmas.
Are those DHL ones all overseas?

We know that this has nothing to do with you Offroad;):wave:

It looks like hes hitting the non US buyers first. Sucks for us but I can understand, there's probably more to setup for customs and what not when shipping to the US.

Maybe the alphabetical order is by real last names... in which case :( :cryyy:

More likely the orders are just being filled on an availability basis though, and trying to fill orders in complete sets.

Really hope I'm not one of the last people got get my lasers again :p

Edit: Trippy is in the US no? So that's not it.

I assumed it was in order of who paid. I think blord was first...?

Well I guess that rules out my theory. If its last name alphabetical, he will be at the K's in no time, which is good for me.

I dont think so cause I paid basically instantly once offroad started taking payments. And Im at the top of the list.

I'm not sure why we are torturing ourselves trying to figure out the reason behind Kevin's rhyme hehe.

Patience may be a virtue but when it comes to lasers, I'm like a kid in a candy shop. An extremely dangerous blindingly bright candy shop!
