For Sale ACTON BLINK S2 New for sale

Hi,
I've backed on indiegogo for an ACTON Blink S2.
I've only recently come to know that where I live - Switzerland, Europe - electric skateboards are not allowed to use in public at all and thus anyone who uses it can get a huge fine if caught. So now I am trying to find someone who would take it over.
I still have 1 week to confirm my shipping address (till 19.06.2017) so if anyone would be interested, I could change my shipping address and thus the board could get to the new owner easily.
I paid for the board $ 589 + $ 200 shipping cost (attached a screenshot).
If anyone is interested please send a fair offer as quickly as possible to discuss.
Thanks and cheers,
Tibi

 

I can pay 700 euros if the board comes to Malta.

 

Hi,sounds fine. Can we take this further offline? You can reach me here: kocstib(at)gmail.com to discuss the details.

 

Before I get an answer from acton that the change is even possible, I'm not doing anything.

 

Sure, go ahead and get in contact with them, no probs. They usually reply within a day or so. I know 'cause I had the conversation already with them and they told me that I just have to update the shipping address when the confirmation request comes. I could even send you the emails I had with them.
Just keep in mind that I have to confirm the address till 19.06.2017 if we make a deal till that date.

 

"Hey Akki,
We don't advise transfer of ownership, especially if it is an Indiegogo order. The reason being is that to change the address and ownership, would mean him changing his Indiegogo account information and giving you access. We will be responsible for orders to whatever information is current to Indiegogo. Please let us know if you have any other questions."

Sorry, sounds too complicated. Maybe just get the order and sell it when you have it..

 

Hey, i understand that. Funny that they told me the opposite..

Hi Tibor,

Thanks for the reply. You can definitely change the shipping address to another person for your order. Please inform is the new shipping information once available. Please note that the warranty will be covered under the new shipping information given.

Let us know if you have any questions.

Best,

ACE
ACTON"

That's the only reason I am trying to find someone taking it over..Well thanks anyway cheers

 

I would think you should try to get a refund. You may have a case with your credit card that they sold you an item that is illegal to use in your country and the credit card company would give you a refund.

 

Hi, that's a very good suggestion! Thanks!!!

 

Hi there, I live in Italy, close to the Switzerland border.
Is still available the board?

Thx.
Stefano

 

Hi Stefano,
there is already a potential buyer for the board when it arrives. But in case nothing would happen, i'll contact you and we can still discuss.

Cheers,
Tibi

 

Thanks for your reply Tibi.
Yes, ok. Let's keep us updated.
Do you have a rough estimation on the timing?

Thx.
Stefano

 

Hi Stefano,

latest update from Acton:
"Shipment has left our factory on 7/19. Ocean freight is scheduled to depart on 7/28. ETA to France is 8/29."

I don't know why does it take a month to arrive into Europe though.....

Cheers,
Tibi

 

Are you kidding? From California by surface? Is it going through the Canal or across the states and then shipping from the East Coast?

 

In fact also to me look a bit strange but...
It is an ETA and they may consider a looong custom clearance period; they may add 2 weeks for contingency in order to avoid any possible negative feedback.
Just be patient, I do not see it so embarrassing...

Its a great board - I have one and the remote is rock solid - no drop outs - not bullsh!t - it just works - and its bluetooth and it has an app that talks to the board (built in lights are also useable)
