PFKMan23 Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 You're probably right. The buyer was also kind enough to pay half of the tax and custom fees. Really decent guy I must say since he has no obligation whatsoever to do so. Did you mean to say seller?? Quote
saint.panda Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 Did you mean to say seller?? Uh yeah, typo Quote
spritzer Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 I think I'm just gonna show them the paypal receipt of the purchase. Still a lot of tax and customs though, around 400 Euros. By the way, what's the fine for altering an invoice? It would have the proper VAT number and everything, only the buyer address would be altered. Anyways, if somehow possible I'm never buying expensive stuff from abroad again. That kind of stuff can land you in jail up here but it is easy to do. Not that I have ever done it or anything... This is the reason why I offer buyers from EU the option to declare the package lower if they want to and assume all the risks involved. Quote
saint.panda Posted March 19, 2008 Report Posted March 19, 2008 After a lot of back and forth with Dutch customs, I got lucky and didn't have to pay any customs nor tax after all. Maybe they got annoyed with my constant phone calls or just started to pity this fool. Either way, the Stax sound great. Quote

spritzer Posted March 19, 2008 Report Posted March 19, 2008 Good to hear that you didn't have to pay anything. Btw. Stax is always FTW!! Quote
Contrastique Posted March 19, 2008 Report Posted March 19, 2008 Year of the stats, eh? Contrastique, let me know if you guys decide to organise a small meet and I'll be happy to bring the Stax along. Absolutely! I'm already looking forward to another one. It went way too fast. We should hire a cottage or something next time and have meet that lasts a weekend long. And we can listen, have fun, barbeque some and make a campfire and play songs on guitars and drink nice wine...sigh....I really like the idea Quote
deepak Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 [me=postjack]scrambles to check his Amex balance [/me] Amex balance equals negative infinity US dollars. Or also known as negative 50 Euro. Quote
darkless Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 Amex balance equals negative infinity US dollars. Or also known as negative 50 Euro. Lucky you. My balance would be more like negative 3000 Euro. Quote

Smeggy Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 Yay, the Lambda whatevers and SRD-7MkII have been delivered $300 FTW and a mighty big play session tonight. Dum-de-dum-de-dum.... waits for 4:30 to roll around... Quote
spritzer Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 For 300$ that is indeed a steal!! Japan rocks for good deals but weakening dollar is making it harder to find any... :'( Quote
