Got my tracking # today for the 870k from rc4wd. It's coming from Hong Kong.

My experience, & seems to mirror others, is 5 days from the receipt of the tracking number(s), you should have the machine delivered to your door.

Nice! Is yours coming from Hong Kong as well?
Do they supply hydraulic oil or is that separately bought?

[bigpipespete]

Yes mine is coming from Hong Kong and you need to buy the oil and battery separate.

Congratulations on your purchase, your just across the line from us here in the lower mainland so I know what your weather is like this time of year. Do you have somewhere covered you can use that machine or will it be stashed away until spring ?

The weather here has been unusually cold, & drier than usual. I don't have an indoor play area. Since the weather has been so dry, I took mine out to play on Sunday. I was really impressed with the digging power. I wasn't too impressed with the drive motors. I've ordered from Soyland Industries the upgrade kit for them. I hope the weather will still be dry when the upgrade kit arrives, & I get the hoe running again. For now, it's in pieces, sitting in the garage on a shelf. If the weather DOESN'T cooperate, then the machine will stay stashed away until spring time.

Since our package is coming from Hong Kong, are we as buyers going to be hit up for customs duties and taxes or does rc4wd take the hit?
I guess I should direct this question to previous buyers from rc4wd?

[skeeter]

There are no taxes/import duties......at least for Wa state. IDK about the greedy CA government, they might could slap you for taxes.

It depends what value they put on the invoice. When I ordered directly from Eagle I noticed they were kind enough to indicate a value of 200$ instead of the full value. DHL charged me 50$ for brokerage and custom fees so I was happy in the end, I honestly was expecting worst.

Look on the bright side 1 inch of snow could of led to a slip and fall with the box in his/hers hands. Plus now there's some snow on the ground to plow. Speaking from experience the 870k plows really well. https://youtu.be/X6yrCHfIqAk
