    Based on the available "Adam" figs on ebay....it seems to indicate that the import taxes can be covered by the shipper/seller at the time of shipping.... https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=Kitz+Concept+pilot&_trksid=p4432023.m4084.l1312&_sacat=0 When you expand on the price details....there is a description from ebay that states.... ******"This item includes applicable import fees...you won't pay anything extra after shipping"********** So it seems maybe KC just doesn't want to cover the import tax for US buyers who purchased directly off their site?....pretty dissapointing...but I guess to them dissapointing the group that has already been waiting the longest is less of a risk than dissapointing what is probably their biggest US retailer.... *****actually, this message appears when browsing via the ebay app*********** The same auction viewed on the ebay website says "International shipment of items may be subject to customs processing and additional charges" Can't be certain which is accurate...if anyone here finds out, let us know...

    In short....there is a very high probability that it will have some sort of QC issue... Could be incorrectly installed parts, loose or broken parts, misaligned parts, parts that are hard to move....and other issues... Since you are ordering from BBTS, you can at minimum get another one....at best, walk away with a refund.... Which, in hindsight, means that ordering via BBTS was probably the best choice when it came to KC Macross toys... If you have some time, just go through the thread....there has been plenty posted about KC'S QC...

    Seems like KC found an option to get their "Adam" figures shipped to BBTS customers.....if KC ate the import tax for that shipment it doesn't really sit well with me as an early supporter/purchaser of their Regult w/pilot PO, oh well....maybe he used some of the kickstarter funds to cover the import taxes for the BBTS shipment........would be curious to know exactly how many were in that BBTS shipment...

    Was there a value placed on your shipments? Are you saying ShowZ "pre-paid" the import tax upon shipping the item to you?
  9. jvmacross
    Yeah, it does come off as a slap in the face for those directly supporting KC....I sent them an email about this and when their "loyal" fans can expect to receive their figures....so far crickets.... I understand their predicament, but wouldn't this shipment incur an import tax for BBTS?...unless they were shipped before the whole tariff mess? I'm curious, has anyone had anything shipped post tarrif crackdown from China? If so, were you assessed any import taxes and were they equal to the current tarrifs in place for China?

    nice collection

    I wonder if BBTS is taking any hit from this shipment in terms of an import tax?

    Thanks for posting this....
