The new Reich is almost here. No honestly, I really need an alternative. Customs would make this thing too expensive.
how does a roundtrip to australia sound. no seriously, if you can get a new unused australian n3ds, i somewhat doubt they come with 9.3 or higher. and if it is, you can still sell it again (or keep it, as the EU release will be 9.3+ for sure anyway).

using math, i estimate that shipping + import taxes should come down to about 260-280€ total, when ordering on play asia.

Clue me in on customs tax please?

I ordered 3 from Play-Asia. They are shipping them to Florida... How much do you guys think i would have to pay and is it per system? or just the order?

Can someone do a calculation for me.. this is what i get..

Edit
Total customs value (FOB): US$660.00
This is the amount that customs values your import at
- Duty: US$0.00
- Merchandise Processing Fee: US$0.00
Total import duty & taxes due: US$0.00
This is the amount that needs to be paid to customs
Total landed cost:
US$698.00​
This is the total cost of importing, including product, shipping, insurance and import duty & taxes

Tip: When FedEx invoices you the custom charges, email them about the admin charge and they will take it off.

Though I don't see the point in importing when it's released soon.

It was:

Gegenstand Artikelpreis 259,99 USD (ITEM)
Kurs 1.269300 203,83 EUR (USD -> EUR)
Frachtkosten 77,80 EUR (Shipping)
Zollwert 282,62 EUR (total custom)
EuSt. 33,35 EUR (?)
Einfuhrumsatzsteuer 315,98 EUR (very total custom?)

Zölle / Custom 60,04 EUR (Custom to pay)
Vorlageprovision Fedex 10,75 EUR (Fedex for doing the custom)
19Umsatzsteuer 2,04 EUR
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Invoice from fedex 72,83 Euro

Unfortunatly I don't know what admin charge means and why they should cancel it then? I already paid so it doesn't matter anymore.

I ordered the Australian one because of the firmware. Its unclear which firmware is introduced when releasing in Europe and I didn't want to risk it.

    Family guy is worth 300mill south parks worth 1Bill according to the interwebs
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @K3Nv2, probably cuz family guy is more disliked compared to south park
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It just does the same formula south park can press buttons without going overboard
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    And bc most of the family guy budget is spent on the voice actors rather than on the animation
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Southpark could spend 30k on a animated dick and people would laugh at it
