I´m just going to ask here because i know some here may have an answer
I ordered some ANT Miners S1 from china to europe and every time i pay different customs duty? WHY
Paid 41€ duty, Pay 56€ duty and today even 96€ duty for the exactly same article?
(the 96€ one was opened by customs, i see it because of the badgeds)
bro this is why , i prefer cloudmining, i am from turkey, and believe me , our custom taxes are worse and stranger than you,
6 months ago, i bought a headphone from ebay, they take 100% tax from it, it costs more than twice the value...
I ONLY do (btc) cloudmining here at PBM (have some 0.5 Th/s) . I just bought the ANTs to sell with profit to someone, i am not crazy and mine with 0.27Euro per kwh.
(if i would mine i would do it right and mine in a country with almost zero electric costs)
And with profit i bought Gridseed Miners (used 70$ per Gridseed at minereu) and scrypt mining them for the funny (coin switching profit based pool mining mostly). No fan, 5Watts per Miner and my Rasberry PI wants 15 Watts or something
jseppeli: every time i pay different duty for the same ANT MINER, this is so strange.
I mean same Miner, Same weight and one time 41euro and another time 97euro , another time 56 Euro?
This is so strange and google not brought me any further. Asked the UPS man, he don´t know ,too.
I pay 0,12€/kWh for electricity
you should contact your countrys customs regarding the duty. one possibility is if you have different duty for different things and for some reason they have been charged with different customs.
for example in Finland I have to "only" pay 24%VAT for computer parts but nothing else
clothes 24%VAT+12%customs
car body parts 24%VAT+4,5%customs
engine parts 24%VAT+2,7%customs
wristwatches 24%VAT+0,80€/pc
Yeah, i will do that.
But i have a little fear that they say " OH you only paid 40.90€ for last packages, 97€ is the correct prize"
I´m scared now order some more because paying 100€ custom duty for each miner not really makes sense to me.
I ordered some Gridseeds 70$ each , from minereu (UK), hope not have to pay customs , i stay EU same same.
