Goldbugsupply for Sigma tester

[matt1r]

So I’ve been looking at getting a sigma for a while now and have came across goldbugsupply, does anyone have any experiences with these guys otherwise where would you recommend to buy from?

Thanks 😊

I know they have unfortunately recently went up in price by €100 to €1100 but I got mine here 👇 and was very pleased with the service. 

Think it was a 8/9 day turned around from payment to delivery. Manager/owner even waved the delivery fee (€89)as I had just missed out on the lower price

I haven’t bought from overseas in such a long time for arguments sake say it’s £900 shipped, what duties and taxes will I have to pay on that?

I think it's 20% vat on imports, but they should drop the European tax off the order I believe? 

I'm looking to get one too, don't know if they would discount a group buy, if anyone else was tempted?

I would also consider looking at the GVS Bullion Tester as another option over the Sigma.  Nothing wrong with Sigma, it’s a good tool to use.   I have the Mini Pro, works well.  But I find the GVS magnetic scale to be a tad more reliable; I did a review on the GVS Bullion Tester, you can look it up and decide which is the better option for you.

Thanks I kind of made my mind up already I’d like to get an original sigma first and see how I get on with that. Maybe in the future I’ll go for a pro or another device like you’ve suggested. I like to think for the time being the original will be more than sufficient for my needs and just a little extra assurance.

I ordered one this morning anyway so hopefully it will be with me next week 👍

Did they drop the EU equivalent of VAT?

They really need to consider adding a UK distributer...

Yea I wish they had a UK distributor..

I got charged £180 duties, not ideal but knew it would be around that figure so not a problem. The total including shipping fees duties everything for the 3 wand set was under £1000. The most stressful thing was the fact UPS were processing/delivering the parcel. 😅

All said and done I’m pleased with my purchase.

Also Michael who runs the site was a pleasure to deal with.
