Santi drysuit how long does it take to ship

[GF99/99]

Interesting you posted this as I am literally in the process of placing an order for an E Lite and was wondering about shipping times also. I was quoted 8-9 weeks and that is with all my measurement adjustments as well.

Once I get the order finalized ill keep you posted if it actually ships in 8-9 weeks.

Just a follow up. I placed my Santi order 12 Aug, and was just told it will ship Monday 26 Sep. via Fedex. So basically little over 6 weeks total.

Also crazy good deals on Santi suits right now if you buy them in the EU due to the exchange rate to the USD. I Pick up an E-Lite for €2,090 euro shipped (USD $2,030). With 5 alterations, Santi Smart seals, halcyon pee valve, name embroidery on pockets and free under garment. I checked with DRIS and they wanted $3,300 for the same suit. USD $1,270 savings. Plus DRIS quoted me 5-6 months lead time.

Are you going to get taxes on it? Since those are tax free prices. I don't know how US customs work, but on that price, I would be charged +32% of taxes and fees

Sorry for the super delayed updates.
I finally received my suit at the end of September. I have to say, it was worth the wait. I love the design and the high quality. The reason it came so late is because my dealer didn’t submit my order in time…. which is ridiculous, I know. If I hadn’t sent an email to Santi’s headquarter, this would have gone unnoticed.
Anyway, I have two drysuit now, one Santi E Motion plus ladies first, the other one is a back up suit, DUI FLX Extreme. Both of them are great suits. But if I would like to buy the third one, I will chose Santi for sure.

Other than possibly getting sized into a better fit, what do you like more about the Santi?

I like Santi’s design, tailoring and some details such as the carrying bag.

Shipping out of EU so no EU VAT. I never got taxed on it.

Also for an update it took almost exactly 7 weeks from time of order until I had it in my hands to get my Santi order. Which in the grand schedule of things especially with all the raw material shortages and supply chain issues 7 weeks is not too bad. And WAY! WAY! faster and cheaper! than any N. American dealer.

Basically got a brand new semi custom Santi suit for USD$2,000 delivered in 7 weeks.
