Bajaiman, I emailed Casa to get an exact quote with the new projector price and they said $192 shipped to Indonesia so that's better than we both expected :beer:

Hi Sean,
This is Crina.
After checking, the following is the details for your reference:
1 piece of CTL-HM to INDONESIA will cost $192.
1 piece of CTL-HL to SLOVENIA will cost $395.
Hope these can help you.
Thanks

EDIT: the Slovenia quote is for the other forum, so everyone can ignore that unless you live in Slovenia and want to buy the 1W professional lol

Sending Casa's world wide in this GB woot woot! North America, Europe and Asia.......only need a few more buyers to cover the world :crackup:

For those of you who didnt see go here: http://laserpointerforums.com/f48/new-camera-new-pics-1-11-14-a-87276.html

The "outside" design (star design, box, etc.....is the Casa) Looks dang good for a projector that doesnt do "images" well. IMO those look KILLER!

Cant wait to get mine, if you cant tell from my excitement!!!!

 

[Tmack]

I'm with you man. Those new pictures are sick!

 

[bajaiman]

LivinLoud... Thank you for the extra saving :gj::beer:. Much appreciated

 

[Livinloud]

No problem buddy, glad I could save us all some green (well idk if money is green in Indonesia, actually its not really green here in the states anymore )

I sent a PM out to all the members who showed interest on the other forum so I will do the same here. Good news is everyone who said they'd take a unit has actually given me their order so props to everyone for sticking to their word. If you have been lurking here or said you were not sure if you'd get one; dont worry if you cant get a unit. We have the numbers needed to get the GB discount so it wont hurt us any. Only thing it will hurt is possibly your pride when you see the KA thread I am creating so the Casa owners can show off their new toys (yes buyers that means I am creating a massive thread for CASA ONLY photos over in the multimedia section. Feel free to make your own threads but please add the photos to the "master casa collection" thread as well).

For those who have already given me their orders, you aren't getting a PM :na: I already have your order so no need lol

 

[Livinloud]

So although the other forum showed a ton of interest, when it came down to it only 2 could commit. While LPF on the other hand has 5 buyers Woot woot! I've heard back from everyone who showed interest and put out a 12-24 hour warning on the other forum.

THIS IS YOUR 12-24 HOUR WARNING!!!!! If you have NOT posted here BUT are interested then contact me ASAP, otherwise the order will be sent tonight/tomorrow (depending on when I have time). Good news for the rest of us since this is ahead of schedule

ORDER SUBMITTED Jan 14 11:30pm EST

For those who haven't ordered and still want to, send me a PM with the information bulleted on page #3. I will send your order over to Casa ASAP!

For those who have given me there order;

Hello friend,
Do you get the all buyer's information.
And when you pay, we will send to you during 3 days.
Because it is busy season now.
If you pay quickly, we can arrange your items asap.
Thank

PLEASE check invoices for proper amounts prior to paying. Im expecting invoices to be sent out tonight/tomorrow. Looks like units will be sent within 3 days of payment. Not sure if they are sending tracking to each buyer or if all to me. This is something I asked when I sent the order. If I get the tracking then I will PM each buyer with the info.

Now hoping that everyone gets their unit before Feb

Keep in mind the Chinese New Year is approaching quick. Although it doesn't officially start until the end of the month, some people may take an "extended" holiday, not that its not long enough as is *eyeroll* The longer payments take, the longer it will take to get your unit and it might not ship prior to CNY

Any issues in invoice, etc....PM me ASAP so I can help you out or email Casa to get it corrected. I don't anticipate any issues but you never know.

EDIT Jan 15 1:17am- Did anyone get an invoice? They sent me an email saying they sent them but I didnt get one. Emailed to figure out where mine was sent to (might still be in transit but we will see)

EDIT 1:37am: Found out what Crina means by sent invoices she sent all the invoices to everyone by the looks of it. Grrrrr, was expecting each buyer to get their own invoice but at least the totals are correct. Check your invoice for the right address. I breifly checked and everything looked good. Include your shipping address with the payment (I am just to confirm the address again). Well at least I got an answer on how to pay-

Yes, friend.
You need to send the payment to this paypal account:
finance@casa-laserlight.com.
when you pay, you can descript the NO.9 order from Derein. group buy member
and the buyer's name.
So that we can clear the payment from which buyer.
And please tell each buyer that please send a email to me to confirm the
payment after they pay.
Please, thanks

After payment is sent you can reply to the invoice email Crina sent and ask her to confirm that payment was received (she is normally online around 9pm EST and after). Derein Electronics owns Casa projectors in case you were wondering why the email didnt come from "Casa"

EDIT 1:55am- Mine has been paid for and confirmation email sent to sale@derein.com. Dont send confirmation email to the paypal email! Off to bed

 

[Tmack]

Got mine. All Information is correct. Will be making payment on Friday

 

[Livinloud]

I spent a ton of time last night on the payment details. There is a slight language barrier so I was reading it one way and they were meaning another way. Kinda frustrating but in the emd we were both saying the same thing. Just wanted to make sure so no one was confused or doing anything wrong

 

[Tmack]

Are we going to have any customs/import fees? Are they going to be declared value of $187?

 

[Livinloud]

I've never had any customs fees on anything ordered from overseas :thinking:

Never ordered anything over $100 so cant say for sure. I don't even know where to look for that. Did you have any fees on the LK projector?

EDIT: http://www.dutycalculator.com/ says no duty tax. They are claiming it as "stage lighting gift" so I entered that it was lighting, it filled in home/garden for me and then I selected fixture of other metal. That says $187 landed cost with not tax/duty so I'd say no to tax and duty

 

[Tmack]

Mine was lens personal one. That's why my sound sensor is different. (better)

But lens price was all inclusive, so I don't know what he factors in.

Everything I've bought from dragon lasers was declared under $30 to avoid fees. I also had international inquiries about some of my stuff for sale, and I was asked if I had a problem declaring the item cheaper to avoid fees.
I know I don't have to tell you, but could you ask them how this works?

 

[Livinloud]

Yeah I will ask them for sure. Even based on the $187 and using a few different duty calculators, they all say $0 duty. I know Europe has fees on everything so thats why most people ask from EU. They have the VAT and all that crap that I dont understand or care to look up :na:

Afaik the US doesn't have much on duty. The only things I know for sure that carry a duty is liquor and cigs. Even then, you need to buy a CRAP ton to get a duty fee.

 

[Tmack]

OK cool. Just a thought I figured I'd bring up. Wouldn't want any unexpected fees.

 

[Livinloud]

We will declare $30 on the invoice for CTL-HM, declare $50 on the*invoice for CTL-HL.So that you can avoid the high tax.Hope these can help you.Thanks

My payment was confirmed and I sent as for service. Another buyers payment was confirmed but I need to look at my list since I don't k ow all you by first name lol might even be the other forum idk lol

 

[bajaiman]

I've sent payment a couple hours ago. And they confirmed that they'll declare US$30. I've got the 220V/240V.

I'm hoping that they'll send it Monday next week and should arrive late next week just in time for chinese new year
