How to get BOSE 3-2-1 from the USA?

loveboat1234

I hope someone has a solution to this:

I missed on the trade in offer that bose were doing ( 250 cashback ) and would like to buy a bose system but there are a bit expensive here around £699 to start. The model i would like sell here for about £999. Is there any way of getting them from the USA as it sells for about $900 the same system and delivery should only be about £30 ? thanks for your help and hope someone has a good solution to this one.

Thanks.

Hope this helps.... (but beware the customs charge)
Also, are you sure the voltage is switcheable, and if not you will need a converter, which can be bulky and/or ugly...

I am pretty certain that you have to pay shipping costs ,import duty and vat for a start, so that could prove to be quite costly.You then also have to think about the cost of shipping back to the USA if there is a problem with your purchase, then you start all over again with import duty and vat. Something to think about there.

Check out the customs site. There is a downloadable list of the most common internet goods, and the tax rates. The closest thing I could find was mixing decks which has a 3.7% customs charge and standard vat added. And DVD player which has 14% customs and standard vat added. There is also some sort of europe/us blockade going on which means more tax. It's 16% this month and 17% next month.
