Hello,
I am very interrested in de hexapot here on the lynxmotion site.
However I live in the netherlands and don’t know if it’s cheaper to buy it straight from the lynxmotion or via a dutch supplier.
Has anyone here experience from buying outsite from the US.
I also mailed lynxmotion 2 times but I got no responce.
Hey dxc, welcome to the forums!
Jim & Beth, owners of lynxmotion, generally do not visit the forums/email during the weekend, Saturday and Sunday.
is the only Netherlands distributor of Lynxmotion products that I know of, but they do not carry the SES parts. If Lynxmotion does ship to the netherlands, it will be rather expensive. Especially if you select 1-3 day shipping.
If you wait till Monday afternoonish, you can get a reply from Jim or Beth. They could possibly quote an estimate of how much it would cost to ship to the netherlands.
Cheers,

Ok, the site you mentioned is indeed the place I wanted to buy it.
What do you mean with SES, is it a sort of tax?
I would be 1100+dollar(incl. tax) poorer if I bought it in holland.
The CH3-R cost 712dollar excl. tax.
Why are these things so expensive…

You pay for quality. Also, there are alot of parts and involved in a hexapod. These things add up fast. It’s actually a great deal over buying everything separately.
And SE|S stands for Servo Erector Set. They are the silver or black servo brackets that lynxmotion sells that you can use to build your own hexapod, biped or humanoid. Or just about anything.
Yes, ofcourse it is quality, no doubt but I have many expensive hobbies.
To bad this one is also expensive.
Afcourse the servo’s are adding great in the price, 18pieces.
Still I want to play with these “toy’s” I feel young again.
I still got no answer from lynxmotion about my question.
Are they on vakantion or something else…
Hello dxc,
We are not on vacation, we are just very very busy. Right now, I have, uh, 364 unread emails in my inbox. 
We get so many emails every day that it is almost impossible to keep up.
I will look for your email right now, and will have an answer out to you soon.
Yes, I can speak from experience that they are always loaded with emails. It may take a little while, but they will reply 
.
Well I think I will wait, maybe I can buy it second hand sometime.
But the price of € 762(1067dollar!!!)here in Holland, is a little too much difference.
As nobody can tell me what it will cost me eventually, I will not buy the bot.
Thanx to lynxmotion and people here that answered my questions.

I did answer your email, with directions on how to use the webstore to generate a price quote. Did you not receive the email? There will be import duties and taxes applied to the package by customs, but we cannot tell you how much these will be. You will have to contact your local customs office to find out how much these will cost, in addition to the robot.
