Do people still import "air compressors"?

(1/3) > >>

Duamer:
Hello,

Doing some research into possible putting together a group buy for some CS 12/2s for the NY/NJ/PA area.

I've never done this before, so I was hoping to take part in someone else's group buy. I can do pickup from the warehouse and I might be able to get a few other people interested.

I'd really rather work with someone who has done this before. I understand that finding a seller willing to work with unusual requests might be difficult.

Hugh Conway:
Good morning Daumer
You might try contacting Jim Calder at justliveoffgrid.com/
He's in Canada, just north of you. Has sold several  "air compressors" to customers in the U.S.
Jim may be able to provide them, or have the connections to import.
Worth a try.
Cheers
Hugh

I'm just curious if big brother figures out the air compressor thing, if all involved would be in some hot water.

There is not much they can do about importing air compressors but IF they would find a way to call them not importable you would lose the engine, plus pay a fine, plus pay to have it destroyed.

Importing isn't unduly complicated but understand that fees on top of the cost of the engine and freight add up quickly, everyone who touches it or even looks at it at the port will have thier hands out. Many people have tried the group buy deal and to my knowledge none have went through. Problems arise with paying up front and who is responsible for problems with delivery or product. Don't mean to be a negative Nancy but those are just the facts.
