Andrew Chee Report post Posted March 10, 2015 Hello all. Does anyone here have experience with ordering from Sieck from the U.S.? They have a Machine that I'm interested in and shipping isn't too bad. They appear to be a reputable establishment as I understand it. Does anyone have any direct experience they would like to share? Also, what would the import duties be like? Any info would be appreciated. Andrew Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
simontuntelder Report post Posted March 10, 2015 I'm wondering which machine you can't find in the US? I think the assortment of available machinery is often way more accessible in the US. Anyways, to help you a bit, you should be able to deduct 20% of the price, as you won't have to pay German vat. On the other hand I don't know about the import charges. They vary depending on the product category. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew Chee Report post Posted March 12, 2015 The machines in question are either a Pfaff 195 or a Pfaff 595. I'm having a very hard time finding a decent used single needle post bed walking foot machine with reverse in the US. I could buy a new Highlead but that will cost me around $2400-$2500 all said and done. The Pfaffs are a few hundred cheaper. Andrew Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
