amazon delivers to laventana details
by dean Mon Feb 10, 2020 8:06 pm
Amazing or am I talking AMAZON... wow who'd a thought? Anyone notice my sign out front with KM8.5 and a amazon sign below it. Well amazing got a amazon delivery today. This was Amazon.mx they can send items from usa too with paid duty, have not done this just a simple order of ultra bright car back up LED lights so I do not hit you at night while backing up.
There were lots of kinks, but got the delivery this moring, ordered a week ago, well tuesday. Shipping was free for over a 500 peso order. as I am a USA prime member may have been why. I addressed it KM8.5 is about where I am at and put signs on the road.
So I propose we use this numbering system till we have official addresses by the ? does not matter. So water side of the road is odd number and mountain is even KM. We all have enough friends at the road that will accept delivers for them. If we keep it simple for now with low volume this should work to at least the hotsprings?
If we all use similar numbers it will make it easier. I bought mine at Home Depot. I am willing to accept orders for my neighbors to the direct west of me.
I will add some details here.

Allan asked This may be a dumb question but where do the KM distances start i.e. at zero ? so I can figure out what KM I am.

Dean DeVolpi From the T-intersection, next time you drive you are going to look at the road vs the beautiful senerery and you will see official government markers even in town, there is one near playa central 8, there is one near club ceralvo, one by OXXO 10 and so on.
Now I cannot verify for accuracy any of those or mine, but I am close enough for delivery work.

here was an issue, I am a prime member and it would not accept my crerdit card info and declined the order 4 or more times. So had a friend make the intial order with my address her credit card worked from the USA. I will call my credit card companies and ask them if they were blocking me because of online order outside of USA.

Olivia has some wood to use and since we are not going to get these sandblasted i bought my letters at home depot, they are reflective. though I also did some metal ones because I was concerned I wanted several ways to telegraph it.
you can do a drive-by of KM 8.5 for yourself to see the numbers and letters I used. I was overboard because this was something new.
I bought these at home depot, you will need to get the person who is responsible for that area write out the code numbers as the bar codes do not work at the cashier stations so you have to wait, easier if you get the person than hold up line.

Just made a new test, instead of ordering from amazon.mx ordered from amazon usa to ship to Mexico. Then I made a test order to arrive in 2 weeks. Found about 50% of the items i was interested in could not be shipped to Mexico. and found the duty on those that could be shipped was zero to 50% of the items i looked at. The shipping cost was about 20%-25% of the item cost.
here is what it looks like on amazon USA when your shipping address is Mexico
Here is when you start the order process it shows the duty/import tax and shipping cost. about 30% of the total order shipping and import tax
here was my actual order to test. these items had no duty on them, just shipping cost and we can see the arrival date. shipping was usd$10.00 and items were $28.00 so ordering from USA amazon site even though I am prime cost about 30% in this case. and there was no importation added on these two items.

here is an update on the amazon USA order I made shipping to Mexico. Again I am a prime member in USA but for shipping outside of USA there are fees to be paid for shipping. I only picked items with no duty on them.
It is being sent via DHL right now. It is at DHLs main hub for international shipping as of yesterday and now departed today. I would assume it will go to DHL hub in Tolume Mexico next. Then a day or so for Mexican customs department clearance.

Ok my USA amazon order and another person ordering seperately has made it to LaPaz, but they will not delivery to LV because it is DHL. So I we have to pick it up ourselves. Not sure which DHL location.
also this other person ordered from amazon MX a order for an imported item and was delivered to KM9.2 club Ceralvo and his order amazon MX not imported item was delivered to KM 9.2 club ceralvo. So the orders via amazon mx do arrive here in LV.
here are my USA orders details that I must pick up in LaPaz at a DHL location.

facebook wrote:a few updates. I have ordered from Amazon.mx for non-imported items 4 times, and only one time it came to LaVentana. Actually I have only ever had 1 package make it LV. Saturday I ordered from Amazon,mx (not imported) and I got notice yesterday it was in LaPaz at DHL. It was there separate boxes, but all were DHL.
Today at DHL at 12:45pm, they are limiting 5 people at a time inside with taped staging areas.

my new address is KM 8.7 to be more accurate. and for my neighbors send the package with both of our names on tha package as I must sign for it too and if they do not deliver it your name needs to be on it to pick it up in LaPaz. And you need to be checking online when it arrives LaPaz, and within a day or two it will make it to my place, so notify me when it arrives LaPaz.

I am now doing a test with Zapopan who delivers out here about every 2 weeks. Use their address and for a slight fee they deliver to our homes. I am doing this because amazon when they ship by fedex it arrives to LV but if it is by DHL it has to be picked up in LaPaz at their office.

I got a postall PO box in LaPaz and ordering items shipped right to the LaPaz address is working much better in the last 3 months. When shipped to postall lapaz address postall does not charge a fee, if using their usa address there is a minimum 40% charge including the duty.
also if looking for shade tarps I found this one and ordered it, said 2-3 weeks but got it less than a week.
