I should make a clarifying post. I just came across a seller offering the Redmi Note 10 Pro for just under $500. So not as bad.
But this also brings up another issue (I don’t know if you saw my other comments on the thread, I don’t know if you speak Spanish) that Chinese products can be exempt from import tax (they “gifted” us the national football stadium, an important bridge, amongst other things and who knows how much $ under the table). The only official xiaomi sellers are big box stores that offer bottom tier phones, the only exception being the mi 10t which they still sell for the equivalent of about $600. But in theory, someone with the right connections could take advantage of this, even if they’re not an authorized reseller, and get around paying the import tax (or significantly less) since it’s coming from China. Cars are even a better example in this country.
Our own products that are exported to other countries, still cost double here.
It drives people nuts until the next football (soccer) match comes around 🤦🏽♂️
Wow didn’t know it was that hard to dodge customs. Paying double price for everything must be driving you guys crazy.
If they believe it’s intended for resell, then yes. They absolutely will.
If you send a phone, I would say it has a 90% chance (citation needed) of being stopped. As for clothes, if it’s a duffle bag full of used clothes, it probably won’t be stopped. But if it’s a box full of new Levi’s with the tags on them, absolutely yes they will be stopped.
A funny but related anecdote….
The best way to get something through like this, is to make it look like a box intended for a missionary or something similar, and put a bunch of jesus crosses on the box. Seriously.
Even if I ship it as clothing? Do they x-ray everything?
You can’t ship it. That’s the point.
It will get stopped at customs, and you’ll receive a letter saying that you need to go to “x” port city and pay the import tax on the item. That’s if your lucky.
You need a buddy that lives in the U.S. that can ship it to you. Those prices are nuts.
I paid 380$ for my 9T Pro back in November of 2019. I also purchased a 10T Pro not too long ago for 500$ off eBay.
You can get a redmi 10 (non pro) for 199.99$ here, then for instance have someone ship it to you, would save you a bunch. You can also get used versions of the same phone for a lot cheaper.
90% of packages get stopped at customs. For this very reason. They stop the and send through a letter that says your package contains taxable goods, and if you want them, you gotta drive to (port city) to claim it and pay any applicable taxes (up to 90%).
It’s 1500$ on banggood, plus tax probably unless you find a way to avoid it. The price will obviously drop.
would u be making an unboxing video? 🙂
Mae gracias a dios tengo familia en EEUU q viene a visitar cada rato. Así le puedo pedir q me traiga un cel de allá. Ellos lo compran nuevo en Amazon por la mitad del precio de lo que cobran los vendedores aquí…es una mierda
Tmb paso a EEUU al menos una vez por año para el brete… Así necesito que el cel lleve las bandas específicas de los dos países, también que tenga la opción de meterle dos tarjetas SIM, una de cada país 🙄
El Poco F3, también el mi 11 lite 5g me parecen las mejores opciones en este momento. Los dos llevan las bandas necesarias para funcionar bien en los dos países y cada uno sale en $400 masomenos en Amazon. Aquí sería como 4 tejas la vara, si lo puede encontrar y no sale en alguna estafa.. jueputas
congrats on paying $250 extra for a leftover mi band 5 screen on the back!
Despues de leer todo esto ya no me quejaré de los precios en Perú yo consegui mi mi9tpro por U$ 400 veo que hay otros sitios más críticos
It’s probably for tax reasons but it would be killer to have more competition for smartphones in the US. Samsung has almost squeezed out OnePlus.
Mae y ya vio el Redmi Note 10 Pro? Smart. T. Lo tiene como en 280mil, para eso uno se compra el Poco F3 lol. Por dicha compré el Poco X3 Pro de 8+256 en Asiático por 225 cuando salió esa ofertaxd
Duarte? Yea fuck that guy lol
So you are an official distributor and you’re getting them for $2k, or getting them at the normal pride and turning a significant profit selling them at $2k?
Not Brasil.
And its all yours
Interesante. Hace un año maso que ando el xiaomi note 9pro y no tengo ningúna queja la verdad
El clavo del Mi10t es que el MIUI me anda corriendo con muchos problemas y llevo ya dos meses esperando una actualización 🙁
Normal
Ese es el precio del Mi10t Normal o el pro? Yo creo que el que mete los Xioami a Nicaragua tiene algún trato con el gobierno o algún conecte, es muy barato casi igual que los precios que se manejan en alieexpress
Don’t know, maybe people did took my word for it and think I am a serial killer that murders people to get their phones 🤷🏻♂️
Acabo de fijar el precio del mi 10t en Gollo. Lo dejan en c360.000 o $580 masomenos. Osea eso sería un precio justo, pero igual los importadores que venden los nuevos celulares de alta gama cobrarían al menos c1.2 millones para el mi 11 ultra. Es una mierda
Los impuestos de importación salen en 90%, dependiendo… Irónicamente los productos chinos no tienen q pagar el impuesto ese (recuerdas del “regalo” de China q nos dieron hace unos años, mejor conocido como “el estadio nacional” 🙄🙄). Sin embargo, los únicos vendedores oficiales de los productos xiaomi sólo venden el note 9, note 9a, note 9c, etcétera…. Pura mierda. Así solo los importadores venden los celulares de alta gama, y tienen q pagar el impuesto para importarlo, por eso sale tan caro.
Pura vida vecino
Edit: el único producto de “alta gama” q está disponible por un vendedor oficial sería el mi 10t. Afuera de ese celular, solo existen los como el note 9c 🙄 aunque parezca q va cambiando poco a poco (no pun intended 😉)
Why are you downvoted?
Damn, I would’ve guessed prices where around the same in CR. Saludos, vecino
One country to the south.
Where are you? I’m in Nicaragua, my Mi10t 8GB ram was 450 (non pro) the Redmi Note 10 is like 320$
Wish someone did the same thing in America. Would definitely buy a Mi 11 Ultra if I could. If only Xiaomi brought their company to the United States as well (which they probably never will).
Yea, I don’t buy my phones here. Or any electronics for that matter.
Damn bro that sucks. I just got a used note 9s with complete box and under 3 months official warranty in $166. I live in Pakistan btw.
Mind if I ask what country? Brasil?
Edit: secomd guess is Paraguay
Brazil? if yes for how much are you selling?
Some people already answered a comment like yours.
Unfortunately there isn’t any distributor for xiaomi in guyana.
Yes most of them are yellow with black
We don’t actually sell it internationally, Xiaomi actually does not allow international sells to distributors because every country has is own.
You are close, but is a little below 2k
I would’ve read that as black with yellow accents(or gold on the boxes shown).
Give one to me, oh nevermind I am broke
SSSS
CCCC
AAAA
LLLL
PPPP
EEEE
RRRR
Hello, how can I purchase this I’m located in guyana, next to Suriname and Venezuela.
Yellow with black background
“The Senate shall decide your fate.”
Aren’t POCO boxes yellow?
Yeah, phones never been big target for scalpers. It’s hard to understand if it is shop. There are no indications for it. So, I thought someone managed to get multiple phones earlier then everybody.
Bruh these aren’t gpus and xiaomi doesn’t really carry the same amount of hype as samsung and apple. Why would anyone wanna scalp them…
I bet $2k+ in equivalent local currency, unless they use the American dollar… Then just $2k+.
In my country in Latin America, a Redmi Note 9s goes for about $320 used. The Redmi 10 (not pro), is $550. Shit is insane for some of us.
Nope, we are official distributors of Xiaomi Products
How much?
Scalper. We found scalper…
Damn, I will kill 🔪 to get my hands on one of those beauties over there ! 😍
Mi 11 Ultra 5g 12gb ram + 256gb. Whites and Blacks.
