I have one question to the US community: is the price (379,99$) already included the VAT? Because I heard that in the USA the VAT will be calculated additionally and doesn't stand on the price label...

MrDionisUSA doesn't have VAT. I was charged exactly $379.99 on the last drop.

MrDionisWe have sales tax instead of VAT, and it varies from state to state.

username02So this price is already sales tax included? And when you are living let say in NY and Massdrop is located (as I know) in California, which sales tax do you have to pay, NY or California?

MrDionisIf you're in the UK import fees and customs will cost you around £80 on delivery.

RazenbyI'm from Germany but I think the import fee and customs will be similar to UK.

MrDionisNo you have to add your local rate on to the watch price. I pay 8.37% in sales tax where I live in NY. At least shipping is free

MrDionisSales tax is only charged if the company you are buying from has a business license in the state where the product is shipped. Companies that have no valid license to do business in a particular state cannot collect sales tax on behalf of the state. In many states, in that situation the buyer (you) is supposed to pay "Use Tax" (see https://www.investopedia.com/terms/u/use-tax.asp for more information). Very few people actually do this, which is why many states want to implement sales tax on all Internet purchases.

MrDionisType in address in NY, on the final screen BEFORE order confirmation you will see the tax amount and total including tax.
