Possible to buy AW at US Dell if I live in The Netherlands?

Is it possible?

Cuz I would like to buy the Alienware Orion Neoprene Sleeve for M11X but it's not sold in the Netherlands which sucks.

Also another question can where can I buy an Alienware Optical Mouse? Cuz it's not shown on the accessoires at the M11X just the AW Gaming mouse.

Thanks

@KratosX7: I'm also from the Netherlands and I'm looking to buy the portfolio. Found some stores which ship to NL, but for quite high postage costs. Maybe we could do a joint order or something? Also, check ebay as that is where I was able to get the messenger bag cheaply

 

Interesting. Could you tell me the links of the stores which ship to the Netherlands?

 

Bump! Link please

 

Don't forget you need to pay aditional taxes for anything you buy from the US (I asked to import an asus to Belgium and they said I'd need to pay 21% taxes and 250€ shipping costs). Only if you buy products from the European Union will you be exempted from such taxes.

 

250 euros?! Holy crap. How the hell can I ever get an AW Sleeve for my future m11x?;o

 

Wow and I thought that Mexico had high import quotes...(VAT = 16%)

 

you can always declare a lower value when sending the notebook thus paying less taxes.. it's all in the guide in my sig.

 

In first place thats ILLEGAL in some countries, also if the package gets lost or gets damaged then you will get screwed...

 

Well it's ILLEGAL in all countries probably, i don't make you do it, i am offering options.. just don't call the cops.
i've sent a number of notebooks using ups and nothing ever happened to them.
Sure it's a chance one needs to take, i just offered my opinion on how to save a little $$..

 

I doubt a sleeve will cost 250 euros to import to the EU. You probably wont have any customs charge either since it's only $30 and certainly in the UK they dont start collecting customs charges until the value goes over about $38.
Incidentally has anyone actually tried to phone up dell and order these non-website accessories through there?

 

I didnt. Im still waiting for Pbure97 to give me some links ;p

 

The €250 I specified were the shipping costs for an Asus laptop, not a sleeve.

 

don't know in the netherlands but here in spain you don't pay customs if it's less than 50 € , if it's more its around 18% of the price in custom taxes , I bought my computer in america and they charged me 300€ in customs , and I thought it would be cheaper hahah

 

@KratosX7: Provantage.com has the sleeve and ships to the Netherlands. The sleeve is quite cheap there, only 19 USD. However, the shipping would be 39 USD.

I'm interesting in ordering the portfolio form there, combined shipping would be 45 USD, so we could save some on that if we would combine. However, we'd have to add 6 euro for Dutch shipping. I will continue to look for a shop with cheaper options where it is possible to pay without a credit card.
