Want to share some of the costs with those of you considering this machine in the USA. So I live in South Dakota and Yvonne at Premacon said that they won't ship with DHL, only with one of there local carriers, because they get damaged, so What they do is strap to pallet so the machine doesn't get flipped over. Cost is as follows: $1185.00 to my doorstep,
Customs fee with the shipping company's fee's $512.00 total shipping $1697.00. If you pick up at a major air port mine was Chicago then you can take out just about all but $100.00 in customs fees, it was to far for me to drive to that airport.
The machine costs will very because of the Euro conversion, but you can find out on the Premacon site how your machine would cost.

I might have misunderstood, but do you actually state that if you drove to Chicago you could have saved $1697 - $100 = $1597?) The $1697, is that the total shipping cost from Germany to your doorstep? So DHL was not involved in the shipping at all, or they took care of Germany to Chicago?
