Hi, The thing doesn't come from the US at all. It is shipped directly from Hong Kong to your home, wherever you live in the world. As for taxes, that depends on your country and I don't think anyone can help you with that unless they live in your country and have previously ordered something from Hong Kong.

Marco -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Raul A. Gallegos Sent: March-15-13 6:51 AM To: ViPhone List Subject: Attention: Standscan Pro discount code and bonus Hello List, A Viphone member who prefers to remain anonymous recently thought to ask if Standscan would consider offering Viphone members a small incentive/discount since Harry expressed to that person that he was happy their product was of such practical use for visually impaired iPhone users. The Standscan was not developed with the blind users in mind, but Standscan is a good example of a company who is responsive and interested in making their product available. The list member thought it wouldn't hurt to inquire and Harry replied promptly and said that they had in fact already been considering such a discount, but were just a bit hesitant because a few people already purchased the Standscan and they were concerned how people who paid full price would react if they now offered a discount. Said list member suggested that in his opinion there could be a few people who might be upset, but that on the other hand this happens all the time in daily life. You might buy a box of laundry soap for $10 only to find it's on sale 2 days later for $6.99. Furthermore, we are talking about a $30 product here and they are not offering a 50% discount and it is only because a few list members contacted them and gave them such positive feedback. The anonymous list member has asked me or Cara Quinn to post the following offer to the list: anybody who orders a Standscan Pro using the discount "Viphone" during the check-out will get a 10% discount and a free 9 Volt battery holder. This means you get the $29.95 Standscan for approx. $27 + a free 9 Volt Battery Holder which normally I think is $4.95. The 10% discount in fact applies to any item you order from their website. Once again, use '"VIPHONE" without the quotes of course as a discount code in the appropriate discount code field during the check-out process. Below is Harry's email: ----Original Message----- From: StandScan [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, March 14, 2013 12:33 PM Subject: Re: Standscan Inquiry Hello, I have setup a discount code VIPHONE which gets members on the forum 10% off on anything they purchase from the site. If a StandScan Pro is part of the order, we will include a free 9V battery holder (they do not need to purchase the 9V holder). So for $27 they get $34.4 value. This is almost 25% off, I hope they will be happy with this deal as I have worked hard to get the best possible. Would really appreciate if you could help to have this posted this over on the forum.
