a container is hundreds of machines. x 50 quid each so probably £30 000

I was recently told that a container holds 500 machines and stands. Why not try to form a buyer co-op.glennborthwick wrote:a container is hundreds of machines. x 50 quid each so probably £30 000

Re: buying a container of mcs from china
thats what i was thinking of doing, would any body be interested in doin this as then it means we can all expand our businesses on the cheap if we could get say 30 members to put 1k each and then divide the mcs up so for example if a mc cost 50 quid to import you would get 20 mcs on a 1k investment.

You will need a completely independent person to collect the money and possibly some sort of agreement through a solicitor. The alternative, is for one person to buy them, and sell them on for £60 each.

Re: buying a container of mcs from china
do zenjet make the mahines any more? or is it the guy in holland? I have no probs funding the import, have emailed zenjet. I have storage for the container in a bonded warehouse and also have shipping company contacts.glennborthwick wrote:you have many many issues, import tax, how to receive and unload the container, tax on the profit, vat.
If we could get the items sold before import then will gladly do.
Will try and find price if zenjet respond.
Just for rough figures could you indicate how many towers you were after if price was right?if enough people inetrested??
