223604 11440 Molded, Reverse Engineered, Handshaped by One Only...WHAT IS ACCEPTABLE TO YOU? 113 Bruce Fowler Oct 16, 2021 2021-10-16T14:22:33-0400 Ricksurfin said: The landed price is just what it costs to get a finished board on US soil, and is just the tip of the iceberg on the total cost of doing business. So, I do actually believe in the $150 landed cost, but doesn't begin to take into account what the total cost to bring the board to market (I.e. transport, warehousing, personnel, insurance, and so on). So the bottom line is the landed price doesn't truly reflect what the cost per board to Firewire truly is. Click to expand... I just went thru ALL OF THESE COSTS last month. So what I cited was based on receiving delivery less than 4 weeks ago. I crunch numbers for everything I do and have done for years. With an education in Business, I'm more along the lines of Bruce Jones, who had a degree in Business & Accounting. Yes, there are new fees being levied all the time. Unloading, California import tax, cost for delivery of container...... and storage/warehouse (I'm not incurring those). FW has been doing it for a long time and I am sure they have the best bang for the buck scenario once the products get here.
