We need pictures people, unboxing pictures etc…
i opened mine a bit too hastily for proper unboxing photos - i could take a few shots of the unit unboxed :0)
I’m guessing that Ean chose the 6-10 day delivery service after checking the USPS site so hopefully by Thursday or Friday it will be in the UK. I thought the tracking system was crap too, but to be honest everythings probably just sitting on a boat. Let’s hope it doesn’t sink eh.
lets hope

Getting closer! Wonder which’ll arrive first, the video or the unit? Can’t wait! 
Like to order one but out of stock @moment, what is the price of this little cutie
We really need to start a stickied post that answers this question above.
Here’s a post from Ean with the info you need:Black VCI-100SE- Update
Your other option is to purchase the upgrade kit:
Damn it… I’m only feeling the jealous rage now that I see every one else is getting one. English and Philosophy degrees just don’t bring in the bacon like they used to… 
Thanks for the link amadora

No problem, I’m on the same boat! Just trying to help out 
Also, SE owners, post PICS, please. LOL.
hey there,
just got my vci!! And you know what? I´m going to sell my cdj1000s
I don´t need them anymore…
To the guys that already have one:
how exactly does the juggle mode work?
All my attempts to juggle some beats remained unsuccessful. 
Maybe there´s something wrong with the tks-file???
Another question: Do your FX-Buttons light up?
Thanx
Ned
I wish the FX could light up but there is no message out of traktor that tells the controller a specific effect is loaded.
In order to juggle you need to set some cue points (up to 5) and go into juggle mode.
I only got post from the customs here in cologne, i can pick up my vci here in the local customs-office. i don´t know how that works, does anyone know more about customs and taxes germany?!
are there any other european buyers in the forum who got mail from their local customs-office or who is a little bit more experienced in customs?
I am living in Germany too and I am still waiting to get a notice that my VCI arrived. I really hope we will not have to pay that much duty / tax…
It says on USPS that the controller has been in the UK since the 3rd June, anyone know how long it normally takes to get things through customs?
Hi Ase,
I’m also living in Germany. What you should give them when you pick up your SE (lucky you, I gotta wait for the 2nd batch 
) is the TARIC code which helps them pick the “right” customs and taxation rate for your import (I think there have been some posts on this before andI think Ean put the TARIC code on the box). If that doesn’t help, you could print out the following and bring it with you:
This is the code for “other input device”. Just make sure they know it doesn’t contain any audio functionality, as this is charged extra. Some nosey inspectors, will want you to unbox the device, don’t be surprised.
What you have to pay there is:
Price of VCI + shipping/handling * customs rate (0%) = Nothing
Price of VCI + shipping/handling * VAT rate (19%) = Do the math yourself ^^
So bring some cash
HTH,
Mat
I still haven’t received mine either. It’s arrived in belgium on monday, but no news at all…
in the UK are these not classed as mixing decks?
in which case you 3.7% tax, plus 17.5% VAT
They should be classed as USB devices, not mixing decks. No audio or video passes through the unit, it’s technically an advanced mouse!
hey guys, thx for your quick responses. Tomorrow morning i will go to the customs-office and try my best to explain them that the SE is no Audio-Device but just a usb-Controller. I´ll let you know the results
