10k RMB + 1k shipping for the L (approx 1680$ delivered)
22k + 1k shipping for the vs (approx 3500$ delivered)

Just a note to you: "k" means "thousand". So 22k is $22,000.00
A bit pricey!  ;D

Uhm, he is talking about 22K Renminbi, which is Chinese currency... 

BobA:

22,000.00 Chinese Yuans = 3,365.95 U.S. Dollars

Still alot of money.  :o

As some of you apparently went to school in the short bus failed english comprehension class :laugh2: , I'll rewrite that in a more verbose format.

The Vewlix L I can buy for 10,000RMB, delivery will be another 1000RMB on top, for a total of 11,000RMB from Beijing to my apt in Shanghai, China.
When I write China, I refer to China, as in the China where RMB is the main currency in use, as opposed to HK$ or US$ or other currency.
This RMB value is approximately equivalent to US $1680 (for the equipment + delivery).

They also have a Vewlix VS for sale (the 2 player back to back version).
I could buy that for 22,000RMB, delivery will be another 1000RMB on top, for a total of 23,000RMB from Beijing to my apt.
I don't need (or have space for) the VewLix VS, but I can see myself ordering a Vewlix L.

Does that make it clearer?   :laugh:


I have actual photos now, looks like the real deal, so happy its not a "cloned one".

Heheheheheh. Nice cab. Love the black.

It might be only ~1700$ US, which isn't that much money for a westerner, but isn't this a lot of money for a Chinese citizen whose average salary significantly less?  I was under the impression that the difference is 10 fold or there abouts .. so the actual cost to you is what would be equivalent to me being 17,000$

At which point, it is a lot of money!!
