[WTB] HHKB Pro 2
« on: Thu, 11 October 2012, 13:04:47 »
Hi everyone !

º•º First of all, I'm in France, just so you know, if you don't want to ship internationally. º•º
As of now, what I want to get :

HHKB Pro 2, preferably black, with dyed keycaps, but any color will suit me, as well as blank keycaps too.

Thanks in advance :)

Good luck with your search, if you need a proxy from elitekeyboards.com I'll do it, I think they ship internationally to.

Thanks a lot :)
Yes, they do, but the shipping costs are almost a fifth of the HHKB ($60 if I'm correct), and I fear that there might some customs taxes too.
I also went to smartimports.net, but I don't know if there are fewer chances to pay customs taxes. (Apparently it's based in Japan)

Smartimports will most likely mark the keyboard as lower value in the customs declaration, think they wrote something like 50-100$ on mine, so unless your customs will demand proof of how much you paid you should save quite a bit on customs fees/tax. Plus the shipping was only around 30$ for EMS to EU.

Oh, nice, thanks. I don't if going through EMS would be more risky than airmail though.
But that seems like a good idea :)

EMS is the fastest shipping option with best tracking, why would that be more risky :P

Ah I guess you mean the fact that when they calculate customs fees/tax they include the shipping costs, well that won't change the price that much, not enough to go with crappy shipping without tracking for a thing like HHKB imo :]
