    Imported a press from China

    I just received my new press y/day from China! I've been looking at the idea of importing one for a while and finally decided to take the plunge.

    It took just 3 days to get here and arrived in one piece. Initial impression....not as well built as my old Adkins presses but I didn't expect it to be. Build quality does seem ok though and it's holding it's temp. well. Heats up quickly. It has an electromagnetic auto release system which is quite nifty, a little aggresive but useful!

    Will post pics and more info. when I can.

    Imported a press from China

    Yeah, you have to watch that. 2.2% import tax on a heat press I believe and 15% VAT, always bear in mind the VAT is for the total price including import tax and shipping.

    Imported a press from China

    main thing that would worry me importing mugs is the potential damage if not packed very well. Weight would be an issue as would dishwasher proofing if that's essential for you. I would doubt it be worth the hassle when you've added your taxes/shipping etc. on but always worth a look!

    Are the import duties declared on the value of the goods as stated by the seller?

    Yes, value of the goods is put on the parcel and import tax/vat is calculated on this.
