Just got myself a Zeus for £138 shipped!!!
Thanks for the heads up, I can't imagine they will last long

...but what will the customs import fees bump the price up to?

Add about 25% on top of the unit price and shipping.

That will be close.

I was looking at the little compressor.

Including shipping it is £64.75. Adding 25% (vat at 20% and then import at (I think) 4.4) makes that £81

Amazon have them for £89.

Parcel force will also levy a handling charge which has been about £13 when I have imported stuff before.

For a small item I think it is £8 - but yes there will be that charge as well.

Still - now I'm proper curious about the compressor! Anyone tried one?

Adding the import and vat takes that to about £172. Then another £8 or £13 for the handling charge at this end = £180

Thomann have them for £169 ( 192 Euro) - need another 8 euro for free shipping.


If you don't get pinged for the tax then all is good - but if not, there's no advantage.

I'd be worried about the warranty position - having to send it back to NZ would be expensive.

[CameronJ]

Ah yes, lest we forget that bloody handling charge! Good thing I asked...

Thanks for the heads up about Thomann stock though.

BAX have the little compressor for just under £80 shipped by the looks of it.

The thomann unit is b-stock. Only 1 available. I never ordered anything from overseas so it will be a cheap learning experience if nothing else.

I'll keep you updated on the import charges as I get them in case your interested.

[fretmeister]

Yes please.

I've never bought from New Zealand before. I've always been pinged when buying from USA
