MINI EXCAVATOR PURCHASE AND FIRST USE ON MY LAND (EP 11)
Рет қаралды 173,042
3 жыл бұрынDavid and his family drive to Houston to pick up a mini excavator he purchased through the Alibaba website. Expanding a pond is his goal so the new mini excavator will be a welcome site to the land where he can start digging a hole for some fish to swim in.
Below is information about my purchase...
I ordered and paid for the excavator through Alibaba which was $3750 + $250 for the grapple attachment. The customs broker handled the other fees and billed me. The total was $5750. Note that I picked up directly at the warehouse so there were no shipping fees for delivery other than the U-haul trailer. The customs broker communicated with the seller and directed me on which forms to sign. The import tax was 25% so that is figured into the total cost.
I used Patrick Vasquez Customs Broker. 210-349-2577. Great communication! They will handle the customs fee as part of their service and bill you. Their website is www.vasquezcustomsbroker.com
The company I purchased the excavator from is Golden Mining Industrial Corporation. Sales manager is Betty at cnmc011@chnmach.com or sales011@sinogoldmachine.com. Her phone is 86-186-6983-4018. Jack is no longer with the company but we mainly used WhatsApp to stay in contact while the excavator was being prepared for shipment and delivery. If you can't get in touch with Betty you can go to their Alibaba page and their is a contact link there, see below...

Cute little mini mini excavator. That thing wasn’t going to flip on ya coming out of the trailer. Just extend the boom out if you feel it’s a little sketchy. Or spin it around and come down frontwards. If you’re thinking about digging out a pond with that thing, it’s gonna be a while. Especially if you insist on moving the spoils like that.

Easy test for any forklift(towmotor)operater to find where most of the weight is is to put the forks together and center them under that crate and just lift an inch or so off the ground, then if you have to move to one side or another and you’ll see which side has more weight🤔(the side with less weight will rise).

If you have an old riding mower --40" deck no less than 36 use it as a tractor to tow your haul cart . ATV tires on rear will give you the grip to tow and move around on loose dirt,plus use it for packing the Dirt down once spread your liking.Chain link fence is great for leveling the material, a piece 10' long folded in half --5' and a piece of rebar through the middle for towing cinder blocks for weight .

Anytime you are importing merchandise from overseas like China you need to follow customs rules. Once the merchandise makes it to the U.S. it automatically goes through U.S. Customs and you need to present them with the proper paperwork for them to release the merchandise to you. The customs broker knows exactly what paperwork is needed and how to fill it out. They communicate electronically with U.S. Customs to facilitate the release of your merchandise.

I see you have a U-Haul trailer, I used to rent from U-Haul all the time that since they have a thing against smokers and not even hire them I no longer rent from them and I know many others don't either now they rent from other companies, just saying

Great video. Thanks for posting. I'm in the market for a mini excavator myself here in the U.S. mind sharing your process when you ordered yours (i.e., vendor, web portal etc.)?

Below is information about my purchase... I ordered and paid for the excavator through Alibaba which was $3750 + $250 for the grapple attachment. The customs broker handled the other fees and billed me. The total was $5750. Note that I picked up directly at the warehouse so there were no shipping fees for delivery other than the U-haul trailer. The customs broker communicated with the seller and directed me on which forms to sign. The import tax was 25% so that is figured into the total cost. I used Patrick Vasquez Customs Broker. 210-349-2577. Great communication! They will handle the customs fee as part of their service and bill you. Their website is www.vasquezcustomsbroker.com The company I purchased the excavator from is Golden Mining Industrial Corporation. Sales manager is Betty at cnmc011@chnmach.com or sales011@sinogoldmachine.com. Her phone is 86-186-6983-4018. Jack is no longer with the company but we mainly used WhatsApp to stay in contact while the excavator was being prepared for shipment and delivery. If you can't get in touch with Betty you can go to their Alibaba page and their is a contact link there, see below... goldenmining.en.alibaba.com

I'm looking at buying something similar. The last time I bought something for my spice/tea business machine spent literally 2 years in customs before they finally seized and destroyed it. We're there additional tariff charges after it arrived or was everything included in one invoice?
@24acresofparadise 3 жыл бұрын
You will be billed separately by the customs broker. My out the door price was $5750. I picked up at the shipping warehouse so I saved on the ground shipping. In the description of the video I have some more info.

If you choose DDP, you do not need to declare customs. If you choose CFR, you need to cooperate with the customs declaration.
