Tell HN: Out the door price for Unitree R1 ($5900) Robot to USA

7•fcpguru•2h ago
Got this email directly from unitree:

--- For the R1

For the product details you can find in this link: https://www.unitree.com/R1

The R1 basic we just released is 5900USD and the delivery will begin before end of the year.

If you need to program the robot, you can choose the R1 EDU, price is 12500USD for the standard version, version with higher computing power price is 14750USD and version with 3 finger dex hand with tactile sensor price is 26050USD, the delivery starts end of this year.

Freight is 1000USD, duty on the buyer side. ---

Going with the $5,900 USD one but customs adds the shipping so $6,900. I'm in Los Angeles, assuming direct to LAX air I could skip HMF payment (only charged on ocean shipments). HTS Code is 8479.50.00.00: Industrial robots

Base Duty 2.5% and Section 301 Tariff 25%

Total Landed Cost (to LA port):

Product + Shipping: $6,900

Duties & Tariffs: ≈ $1,932

Customs Broker: ≈ $150

Grand Total: ≈ $8,982

Curious - what’s your use case?
fcpguru•2h ago
In 1984 my dad bought the original Mac for $2,495 ($7,600 in today’s dollars). Thinking I should do the same for my kids with the R1? Being an early adopter of the home computer wave definitely helped me in school.
