Topic says it all, guys.
I've been following LaMetric ever since I first found out about it (unforunately, that was after the Kickstarter) and I would really love to get a unit. However, what (still) keeps me from is...
... and on top of that, the EU 25% sales tax plus custom fees
Moreover, since the USD to EUR exchange rate is anything but favorable, I still really can't justify getting a LaMetric.
With all of this in mind, is a decent price drop expected anytime soon?

Hi guys! We are happy to have so many fans in Europe!
We will search for the ways to decrease a shipping cost and make our European customers happy!
@Lamy, Currently we ship with couriers only and it takes 2-5 days to deliver LaMetric from Hong Kong to the EU. You will get your device in a few days!:)
also I follow LaMetric since I have experienced it. Unfortunately LaMetric is too expensive for the EU.
With tax and customs duties LaMetric costs around 25% more.
In addition, a supply of Hong Kong takes about 6 weeks. :-(
Will there be a dealer in Germany? Or is there for LaMetric a discount, so that a purchase is worthwhile?
A manual in German I would greatly appreciate it.

Well LeMetric, you heard it - at least two of your EU fans are expecting a price reduction. If you have any news for us, now is your chance to tell us! :)

There is
currently two. But surely there are more EU Fans! And everyone is waiting for a
sign ...
Hopefully positively ;-)

Hello!
A great pleasure to follow this topic as at least we're 3 in the EU with similar € concern & cannot play with this lovely gadget!
I'm a big fan as well since day one so any price drop will be great!
@LAmetric: you guys have no option rather than to offer us a discount coupon & we place an order!
Please shoot us an update
Thanks

LaMetric - you can't argue with Cyber Bob, now can you? :) Feel the pressure - your European fans want to be part of the heard, so please make sure that price drop becomes a reality this spring!

@Stuffy, you made my day!! With this terror happening almost everyday (e.g. Paris in Nov, today in Brussels etc), It should be almost part of a survival kit for everyone on this planet 8-) Like " Any "bad news" --> Real time notification on the device - @LaMetric, send us the beast for free & will do some evangelist job for you! That's a deal?!

Thank you dear LaMetric Support,
This message sounds very good, I'll wait until LaMetric found a way has EU Fans opposed to get something.

Any news about better shipping for customers in the EU?
Would love to buy one but the cost is just to high right now...

nach wie vor hätte ich Interesse an La Mectric, aber ich kann nicht wirklich sehen das es Fortschritte gibt. Weder einen Support oder Forum in Deutsch noch irgend etwas wo man sagen könnte jetzt schlage ich zu.
Also warten wir weiter bis es Attraktiver wird.

Um zu berechnen wie hoch die Einfuhrkosten nach Deutschland
sind benötige ich die Aktuellen Versandkosten von LaMatric. Ich hatte auch
schon eine E-Mail an den Support geschrieben, aber bis jetzt noch keine Antwort
erhalten. Warum die Versandosten beim Bestellvorgang nicht mit angezeigt werden
kann ich leider nicht nachvollziehen. Aber vielleicht antwortet ja der LaMetric
Support wenn man ins Forum schreibt.
To
calculate the import costs to Germany, I need the current shipping costs of
LaMatric. I had already written an e-mail to the support, but until now no
answer received. Why the shipping costs are not shown with the order process, I
unfortunately can not understand. But perhaps the LaMetric support answers when
you write to the forum.

$25 - einfach deine Adresse im Formular eingeben und fortfahren, dann werden die Versandkosten angezeigt. Du startest damit noch keinen Kauf-Prozess.

Hallo,
Ich habe mir mal die Mühe gemacht und recherchiert wie hoch die Einfuhrkosten nach Deutschland sind. Auch die Kosten für Zoll und Einfuhrumsatzsteuer. Vielleicht interessiert es ja die jenigen welche mit dem Gedanken spielen ein LaMetric zu kaufen und nicht vor vollendeten Tatsachen stellen werden möchten.
Selbstverständlich sind diese Informationen ohne jegliche Gewähr.

Hallo,
Ich habe mir mal die Mühe gemacht und recherchiert wie hoch die Einfuhrkosten nach Deutschland sind. Auch die Kosten für Zoll und Einfuhrumsatzsteuer. Vielleicht interessiert es ja die jenigen welche mit dem Gedanken spielen ein LaMetric zu kaufen und nicht vor vollendeten Tatsachen stellen werden möchten.
Selbstverständlich sind diese Informationen ohne jegliche Gewähr.
Die Berechnung setzt sich wie folgt zusammen:
199,00 Dollar Kaufpreis
25,00 Dollar Versand
224,00 Gesamtpreis Rechnungswert (tatsächlich gezahlter Preis + Versand = Zollwert
4,70% Drittlandszollsatz
10,53 Dollar Zollwert * Drittlandzollsatz = zu zahlender Zoll
234,53 Zwischensumme
19% für Deutschland Zollwert + Zoll = Einfuhrumstazsteuer
44,56 Einfuhrumstazsteuer
279,09 Dollar Gesamtpreis
Zu achten ist, dass wenn ein Paket länger beim Zoll liegenbleibt entstehen zusätzliche Kosten.
