XM Studios - NA Distributor for World Wide License

[Redpower]

[QUOTE=shorudan;5228934]Hey folks, I'm working with GFX to finalize and announce the resellers/retailers. There are two things I have insisted to GFX for this deal;

1) Pricing must be competitive as compared to buying from XM directly. Retail price wise, there will only be slight variations due to currency fluctuations and taxes

Same question,

Are you working for Europe price too ? Still not a cheap way.

I find it strange on distributor pricing....it can never be the same as the origin country.....it can be close but not the same.....

Just like I buy Bandai, Koto, Hot toy, sideshow, Tomy takara collectibles which has distributors in my countries but price still at least 20% more expensive than the origin countries of the brand.......

hi Sarah, just so I don't give the wrong idea - GFX can only distribute our global licenses - Star Wars unfortunately isn't one of them

Hi Redpower, I've previously did a fair bit of research on this - you can check out http://www.statueforum.com/showthrea...hlight=pricing feel free to suggest any ideas that can make things better for the EU collectors.

As I'm learning this myself, this is because of different import Taxes in different countries. For E.g. EU has a huge import tax, and when you apply that on a high priced item, it becomes magnified.

Hey guys, why don't we form our own group on Facebook to purchase from GFX and cut out the other middlemen? This way, we can get the wholesale pricing.

Request an application from GFX. You will see they need you so prove you are a valid business. This includes having a DBA. It would always be that one person who would need to take on all that responsibility including collecting taxes.

I doubt anyone would want that stress.

Alright, my curiosity is killing me ...what's DBA?
