Last I am asking for the lasers to be declared at a total combined price of $70 to avoid paying taxes.

Everything over $25 I have to pay high taxes here. So better to ask to make it to $40 - below $25, the chance of the package getting confiscated is too high.

Ok than we have a big problem. They just told me that they won't do that, they need to declare the real value.
They will keep the discounted prices with just the quantity we are ordering.
And last that they need 3-4 weeks from the day we order to have it shipped.
Now there is a solution to the problem with the taxes, but you would have to trust me. There is an address in panama we could have the lasers shipped to, and then they get forwarded here in Costa Rica by land and pay no taxes. I know it works I don't know the cost but I could find out. That would mean that you would have to trust me with your lasers, once in Costa Rica I could ship out to all of you individually with a value of $20 each.
Also I don't know if djny has a better relation with Ava zeng and ask her to please reconsider.

I am in for sure. It will be the crown on my collection. :)
 
Re: UPDATED ..Possible group buy on CNI Lasers

Ok I need to know how you guys want to work this out. If we pay taxes over an invoice of over $3300 it's going to cost us all a lot of money.... Please advise.
 
Re: UPDATED ..Possible group buy on CNI Lasers

There is no problem on lowering the product value on lowering the product value, but on the consumers own risk. I would ask CNI to label the package with $60 or $80, so all over fees would be ~$40 then.

That's what most company's do, lower it's value so it get's true customs without the person recieving it paying extra taxes for it.

Some times you get Lucky and some time's you don't....

But those are company's that are different then CNI, Laserglow etc...
A.k.a the big brands that stand.

It sure doesn't hurt asking CNI to lower it's value.
But i have high doubts they will label it as a light *flash* worth 20$

^ That´s my point. Just lowering the value to $60-$80, so there is at least a small fee to pay and they´re happy :)


But norbyx option doesn´t sound that bad.

And i'f your Lucky you won't have to pay anything... but it depends on what they print on the label as in ''what's in the box''
 
Re: UPDATED ..Possible group buy on CNI Lasers

You have to pay import sales tax for everything from oustide the EU here with a cost of goods over 22€. Then >150€ you have to pay an additional amount for customs. For many goods below $20, I had to send the PayPal or credit card invoice as customs doupt the value. But never had to show these when an item was marked over these $22, so putting down $60 onto the CNI package, should be fine. Taxes would be ~$5-7 each for 6 people then ;)
 
Re: UPDATED ..Possible group buy on CNI Lasers

I may be interested in a PGL-III-C-589-80mW, do you know if there would be even more of a discount if we managed to get over 10 units?
 
Re: UPDATED ..Possible group buy on CNI Lasers

Well I didn't ask since I don't know if we are ever going to manage to get over 10. Even if we did we got to settle what are we going to do on the tax issue. DJNY I don't know if you have some type of frendship with CNI but I would like, if possible, to contact them and tell them about the tax problem we have in this group buy and if they can help out. Tell them that it's Norberto Malcotti group.
Thanks

Zoiberg I will put you in for that laser.
 
Re: UPDATED ..Possible group buy on CNI Lasers

Just talked to Ava, lowering the value on the package is no problem.
 
Re: UPDATED ..Possible group buy on CNI Lasers

Thanks, well since you are at it, and its obvious that have more influence over CNI than I, why don't you ask her if she can lower the discounted prices she gave me? Maybe we can get an even better deal with your help.
 
Re: UPDATED ..Possible group buy on CNI Lasers

The prices are great, me or scopeguy20, we never got better prices than you before.

I asked for the Performa Invoice, and for getting you guys the discounted prices without the required quantity. Should get reply tomorrow.

It´s up to you norbyx and the people in this GB, which option do you like to take - shipping to your second address or to me.

Have to read at PayPal to confirm that it is no problem to receive this amount of money.
 
Re: UPDATED ..Possible group buy on CNI Lasers

Well I can't take PayPal so I think you are the best option. Also people trust you more and I rather have this GB work out.
So I just hope that everybody that joined it for now will go along with it.
I like it when a plan comes together
