    never mind if i post in the wrong section.

    Anyways, I found out last night that the trailer is on pre-order for about $34 in China (230 in local currency with 1:6.8 USD FX). Just make me wondering how much it costs to import this to US and what's the profit margin for the retailers...

    I guess I will preorder mine from China and pick it up next time i go there :)

    usually if the item is say 100 dollars the china one will be like 34 with 66 dollars shipping....theyre def not losing anything. Is that something you can do?, pick it up I mean.

    i believe the ems is only going to cost like $10-$12 based on the weight info by bbts. they charge more in bulk?

    I usually travel to asia every 12-18 month...and my next trip is planned in this december/coming jan.
