Flat panel tv custom fee ?
If they can guaratee that. go for it. It's probably a lot cheaper than buying one here. (If you can get it at a decent price in Miami)
:laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh: the only correct answer on the question! :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:
Well they do have BBC America. Hope you like Antiques Roadshow, Cash in the Attic or Gordan Ramsey.
I couldn't help but watch Bargain Hunt once in a while on the very slim chance someone actually made money on the show. The host seemed like he was a refugee from a Dr Who casting call. Hey, Jon Pertwee just called and he wants his velvet jacket and frilly shirt back!
Oh and they have The Office, just no Ricky Gervais...
But back to the OP, I wonder if it would be worth your while to order two at once. I'm sure you could sell one at a profit...
worth it?
The pain and worries are not even worth the hassle where you
can buy it in DR.
Personally I spoke with Maximo (Peralta Bros) shipping from Toronto trying
to send a Car + living room set.
First thing he said "what dont you buy all of that in DR and save the pain"
Or that he will ship the items but I would have to get it out on my own
meaning that the time and dealing with gov staff at the custom dpt is not
worth it.
All big brand name representatives in DR. pay a lot in taxes or brive to make sure no one else can bring to the island products that they are already selling
or can be competency for the local market.
Plaza Lama
Radio Centro
Distribudora Corripio
for sure they all have this set up, the same thing to bring generators it will cost an arm to get it out of custom.
I might be wrong but those are info I got from different brokers

Montero can jump through all the hoops. If it's worth importing one TV, it's worth importing two and selling one.
The cost of HD flat screens in the US is simply stupid how cheap it is. And with the HD it seems like you are getting a bigger screen anyways. What sells for $400 now would be over $1000 just a few years ago. They save a lot on shipping from China compared to the old CRT TVs.

Remember there is a difference between being able to quote and being able to deliver, especially in the DR. If Montero can deliver I will be ordering appliances right away, the pricing they are quoting is indeed impressive.
But I would like to see some success stories first, because as we all know, talk is cheap, especially here.
