My Kindle also arrived today, tax free of course

Mint condition, almost no wear. Top seller, thanks again lolwut !

Sadly the battery is dead and i have to order a micro B cable first Cry

. Will a USB A to USB micro B work to charge the Kindle ?

Yes it will.

Allright! Got it and it's working fine. No invoice from customs, which is a good thing. Now I can say I Bought a Kindle Fire using only Bitcoins Cheesy

Will pm D&T saying everything's fine so he can release the money held as escrow.

lowut, +100 for you!

Oh boy... Wish me luck. The Kindle just got held by Customs for inspection.
Hope I won't have to pay 23% VAT over the Amazon price, which is approximately €150, so around €35 + €8 for administrative costs... Fuckin' thieves Sad

USPS tracking page didn't update but you can track it on the Portuguese postal service website.

I marked it as a gift and i think i wrote it was broken. you should be fine.

OK. Customs released it. At least that was fast. Now I just have to wait for the postman to bring me my Kindle+Invoice, or in the best case scenario only the Kindle Grin

Where is your country? Portugal? IMHO I thought most countries do not charge VAT on used stuff like this, especially when it's marked as a gift.

I know they're still there. And believe me I'm eager for the Kindle to arrive so you can release the funds to lolwut.
The sad face was more of disappointment with USPS tracking system than doubt about lolwut having sent the Kindle Wink

My experience with USPS tracking is that usually it works great. Already in the system 5 minutes after drop off.

But...several times it won't update for days, and it won't have any info until later that night after it was delivered. A waste of money paying extra for shipping only to be told it was delivered after the fact.

This must be one of those cases, because even today there is still no update.

Finally got the update Cheesy

tick tock tock. I had more than 20 shippments from the USA to Switzerland and i have never had an issue with USPS. Most times USA to Swiss was faster than from the local airport to my home Angry

I went to the post office and they told me the packages ship. If there was an issue with the paperwork, they will be sent back, however the delivery address is clearly legible, so im thinking the tracking isnt going to work, but the packages should get there safe and sound. If they dont, the post office is responsible for them, but I doubt it will get to that. Just sit tight and you should both have your kindles soon.

I just shipped out the last one today to Isepick.

I'll see if i can get some more, but for now I'm sold out.

Normally the tracking updates when it leaves the sort facility.

1 of 2 things happened here

1) since i dropped the packages on saturday, they didnt ship until today.

or

2) There was an issue with the postage and it wasnt shipped (the labels were cropped a little bit, but all relevant info including barcode was there. postmaster said it shouldnt be an issue).

Either way, if it doesnt update by tomorrow morning, You can bet your beans that i'll be on my way to the post office.

USPS usually just tracks when the package arrives at the destination post office with no info prior to that, https://tools.usps.com/go/TrackConfirmAction_input

Thats not true. They can give very exact information. It says for example picked up, entered sort facility, left country x, arrived abroad, entered customs, left customs and so far. But it depends. For most shippments it works well but i also had shippments no info untill the packet arrived.

I just tried to track psy's and it says the same thing. If it doesn't update today I'll go back to the post office and start raising hell.

So, what you mean is that I'll only get tracking info when the package is 5Km away from my house and less than 24hrs from delivery?
If that's the case, someone, maybe me, should tell USPS to shove their tracking system up their ass Roll Eyes

Can they be used without restrictions outside the states ? My iphones are all jailbroken since i hate not being able to manipulate things.

Thanks Sam

$47.95 is the cost to ship. If you want to PM me an offer, We can work something out

Amazon says they are wifi.

How much with shipping to Portugal, OP?
BTW, you do realise that they are 3 months old, used, rooted, probably with no warranty from amazon, and only $50 less than the ones bought on amazon?

They are all still under warranty from amazon. Barely used and can be restored back to stock rom if need be...

shipping to portugal is $47.95 according to usps.com. If price is an issue for you, PM me and maybe we can work something out.
