I am currently trying to figure out which machine to order and the unknown cost of shipping is holding me up.

I am looking at the G350 or G460 from shenhui, both 60w, but one has a larger cutting area, so much heavier.

I thought maybe people could post the machine they ordered, weight etc and where it went and for how much.

One member said their G350 with extra cooler and spares was about 732us to Miami for instance

Could be a good resource to have on here.

But excluding local charges China, cargo insurance and door delivery

Customs Clearance (excluding local duties, taxes and permits): 145.00 + duty and taxes

Full SHENHUI FACTORY to PICKUP location shipping insurance was $68 USD, which was great, as I didn't know I could get such insurance without having the local shippers arrange the pickup direct from the factory. It was important to me to get only one insurance co to deal with in case of damage.

Admittedly, this might get updated, as the machines are still on the boat, arriving in about 1 week.

We'll rent a truck to pickup and do the last miles, as each crate is going to a different location and those locations have forklifts. We control the timing of the delivery a little better too. We're only 45min from the port area.

China to Cape Town South Africa, door to door , 2 pallets , total $1700
1900 (75") x 1320 (52") x 1300 (51") - 400kg (880lbs) Each Pallet
The shipping cost of the 350 vs 460 will be more or less the same , will work by cubic volume and not weight , the area however is about 60% bigger on the bigger machine - shipping MAY be 10% more....

Redsail M900 600x900 60W, about 600 pounds. Shipping CIF to Houston, $510. Customs and brokerages fees, $810. Unit was shipped by sea to Long Beach, CA, then by rail to Houston. Since it's going by sea, there is little difference between weights. The majority of the customs fees were fixed fees, not tied to the value or weight of the shipment.
