I would like to buy a GMC-600plus, but here in Europe on Amazon.de it costs $ 482.- with the shipping costs. That is very expensive and I fear that customs fees will be added. If the United Kingdom leaves the European Union, it may become even more expensive.
Does anyone know a source in Europe where you can buy the GMC600 plus for a reasonable price without horror additional costs? |

Thank you, but I know the price of € 399.- without shipping. This is far too expensive and maybe the customs will be added. Directly at GQ Electronics the GMC600plus costs € 292,50.- that's a big difference. The shipping cost of € 35,10.- is okay. But I do not know how much the customs costs for Austria? |

In general, from outside EU to France it is 20% of the invoice plus 10-20 € of brokerage fees. for australia it should be similar So: 292.5 x 1.2 (goods + VAT) + 35.10 (shipping) + 15 (brokerage)
= 401.10 I think it should not be far from the real cost when ordering at GQ, and it's equivalent to the price at Amazon. |

Ohhh noooo, not australia! Austria, there is no kangaroo here!
The price by amazon is without €34.- shipping costs. So it is €433.- ! |

All Amazon prices include the VAT. You do not need to pay the VAT upon the receiving. Most of shippings are by DHL express. You can receive it in about 3-5 business days. The standard post office shipping is available upon request from GQ. But it take about 3-4 weeks delivery for a registered air mail. You may be able to save about 10EUR but I feel it is not worth to save that little.

Direct order from GQ may have better price. Because Amazon charges about 12-15% commission from overall price. That part eventually paid by buyer, and Amazon never tell you that. |
