I was going to purchase a Acctek AKM1325c1 with some upgrades. When it came to shipping, based on the figures the factory estimated, when all said and done it would have been 45% the the total cost. So I decided not to go ahead with the purchase. Tried to get DDP incoterms to no avail.
Machine: 11,200
Freight to port: 5,500 (high, because of current shipping environment)
Freight to door: 1,000 (estimate could be more)
Tariff: 2,800
Total: 20,500
For me that is too much shipping and tariff. What do you guys think?
Oh and I wanted them to install UCCNC for me. They said they would if I mailed them the hardware.

I purchased two sets of their router at price 5000$ around before 2020.
Price to my door was 9000$. it is lucky i boght before the COVID-19.
Shipping costs is now a world class issue, when i requested new offer this year, the shipping costs scared me too.
Probably you can have a try with your local forwarder to see if they can pick from China. sometimes it is a little bit cheapper.
Thats all
