        <title>Nelson RepRap</title>
        <description> I&#039;m looking at putting a Mendel together sometime soon either from Botmill or Mendel parts however neither seem to want to answer their emails at the moment just trying to find out shipping costs.

Has anyone imported from either of these and know what the import tax would be?</description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Gulp, that is going to cost quite a bit, personally i'd maybe get the extruder bits, if you didn't want to find a local CNC to make them for you.<br />
<br />
Honestly i'm working as fast as I can to get mine done, just so many people want parts.<br />
<br />
So when you've got yours built and calibrated, there is a queue waiting<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ The current rule (as I read from www.customs.govt.nz), is that customs will not collect if the the total duty to be paid is less than $60NZD, but other wish the charges would be:<br />
<br />
0% duty on the printer<br />
15% GST<br />
$25.30 Import Handling fee (May be charged).<br />
$12.77 MAF clearence fee<br />
<br />
(So basically if it is worth less than $250NSD then you might not need to pay any fees).<br />
<br />
I got a bill with some new Lego I brought into the country, but the printer electronics got in no problem. It does depend on what the shipper declare that it worth. as the value is the cost of the good, plus shipping fees, plus insurance. <br />
<br />
i.e.   GST is calculated on the total of Item Value,  Shipping and Insurance and the Duty.<br />
<br />
Hope that helps in your calculations<br />
