Q-Tune DIY Tuner kit

Thanks for the question. We're still looking into international shipments and may have an option available for Canada soon. Currently pre-orders are for US-based addresses only. If/when that changes we will for sure post an update here. Thank you for your patience while we figure this part of things out.
 
Honestly we'd love to ship to everyone. I've shipped pedals to many countries in the past but it's either cheap (and takes 2-4 weeks, very nerve racking), or faster (and much more expensive). Even Canada right now is in the $50 range, ug.

Here's a thread I've been reading through. Seems like shipping prices have gone up a lot in past few post pandemic years.

So I'm open to your suggestions, and I'll ship where ever and how ever you want... as long as you pay for it.
 
Actually, here's an option maybe. Our standard shipping box is 6x4x4". But we could use different packaging and get it into a USPS Small Flat Rate Box. It all could easily fit in there. 125b would fit without the lid attached. 1590 no problem.
6-10 days. It's still $50, but I feel a LOT better about USPS Priority International than First Class or other services that take 2-4 weeks. This one is to Germany, but I suspect most countries in Europe would be similar.

Actually the Large Video price is the same, and 2" tall. Anyone have VHS anymore:ROFLMAO:

Freaking hell. I used to get entire guitars shipped for 50$.

I honestly cannot help you much with that, I am currently avoiding dealing with the US market for the exact same reasons. I would say that 50$, however I want you guys to succeed (and me to get my hands on a kit), hurts. On our side, most EU country don't only see the 50$ from shipping. We have to pay VAT + import duty on the lump sum (item + shipping rates) so for let's say 200$ total most of us would be paying upwards of 250€. There are some ways -depending on the country- to dodge part of the tax by declaring that it's electronics under 150€ total value, but it's usually asking for troubles.

Being based in Germany, I usually get electronic component from Digikey or Mouser when above 50€ (no shipping, no taxes), and I order my pedal related stuff from Musikding. Low shipping and a huge list of items to chose from. He has most of the AionFx, PedalPCB etc as kits at a reasonable price. In the long term, dealing with Klaus (from Musikding) is probably your best bet).

For your specific case, I will look into options to send kits as they are from the US. But it might just be more realistic to either not waste time on the outside market for such a small first batch, or go for a "half kit" selling only what could be hard to source (basically everything outside of diodes, resistors and caps) to make sure you go under whatever threshold you could trigger. But that would likely cut into your profits so once again, not sure how realistic.

I do appreciate the effort though, thanks a lot :)
 
Yeah, I feel your pain, the world has changed from 5 years go.
I've thought about a minimal kit, just a PCB and oddities - you get all the rest yourself. I don't know how much we'd charge, we haven't really talked about that option. But if so I'd be more comfortable with USPS First Class to Germany, $29. Maybe after first round of 20.

Sorry. If things go well we plan to move to Shopify which will have PayPal. But for now Stripe and its options are best for us as we get started.

Totally understand. I use the 6 months no interest financing PayPal offers. That’s what I was hoping to do. No worries.
