Dude, you rock :D

Perfekte Gesundheit Shop (perfektegesundheit.de) – is a German online store selling quality products for your health. The following products are popular among Russians who do care about their health:

  • slow juicers: Angel Juicer, Kuvings,
  • dehydrators: Ezidri Ultra FD 1000, Excalibur, Sedona,
  • manual grain mills: Luba Duo, Kornkraft Mulino, Kornkraft Toscana, Hawos Molere,
  • blenders: Vitamix,
  • grain mills: Hawos Oktagon 1, Hawos Oktagon 2, Hawos Oktini, Komo Fidibus 21, Komo Fidibus XL, Komo Fidibus Classic,
  • attachments for KitchenAid mixers.

Perfekte Gesundheit Shop ships to many countries including Russia. German VAT is excluded automatically for purchases from outside the European Union. The web-site in German and English.

www.perfektegesundheit.de_Germany: grain mills, dehydrators, slow juicers, blenders,...

Unlike USA, German online shops offer electronics and kitchen appliances supporting 220V. It is not a good idea to have any kitchen appliances supporting 110 V only when 220V is used in your country. There are power converters, but it is a good idea to avoid them for something powerful, especially when water leakage is possible. Moreover Angel juicers, Excalibur and Sedona dehydrators are heavy, so shipping the from the USA to Russia costs a lot. So German shops win a lot hear, especially considering prices after excluding German VAT. The only problems are Russian post and the lack of warranty. But it will fit many customers due to the cheaper prices.

I haven’t found any reviews of the Perfekte Gesundheit Shop from Russian customers, but decided to try. The shop allows to pay not only by a debit/credit card, but also by Paypal. The latter helps to feel safer about money back in case of any problems.

I have compared prices with mukomolka.ru, hlebomoli.ru, ezidri.ru and decided to order the Kornkraft Mulino manual grain mill and the EZIDRI Ultra FD 1000 dehydrator:

  • Kornkraft Mulino – 96,64 EUR
  • EZIDRI Ultra FD 1000 – 214,29 EUR
  • Delivery of 2 items from Germany to Russia – 42 EUR.

TOTAL: 352,93 EUR

www.perfektegesundheit.de: Kornkraft Mulino, EZIDRI Ultra FD 1000

It doesn’t make any sense to order EZIDRI Ultra FD 1000 alone. However Excalibur and Sedona, Angel Juicer slow juicers are much cheaper than in Russia.

The order was delivered from Germany to Russia by Russian Post within 3 weeks.

EZIDRI Ultra FD 1000 doesn’t contain any packaging inside the carton box, so be careful shipping items like this if you use Russian post or any other postal service that is not careful at handling packages.

Germany shops don’t really deal much with something like Russian post, so I suggest you to contact them and ask for additional packaging materials.

Here is my package:

Qwintry parcel forwarder has finished testing a new delivery method – SPSR Express. Now it is available to all Qwintry customers shipping parcels to Russia.

SPSR Express - New shipping method from Qwintry parcel forwarder

The main advantage of SPSR is stable delivery time. On average it takes 10 days to deliver a parcel from the USA to Moscow and a couple of days more to other Russian cities and towns. Moreover this delivery method allows to avoid Russian Post completely, thus you will have better parcel handling and faster delivery.

The shipping cost is identical to USPS Express, so there is little to no sense to use the United States Parcel Service when shipping from the USA at all.

About “How to Work for Yourself”

Making the Time, Energy and Priorities to Start a Business, Book or Blog (or Create Your Udemy Course)
by BRYAN COHEN

One of the fastest paths to success is starting a new project like a business, blog, book or some other creative endeavor. Side projects can result in extra income, greater fulfillment and even a more enjoyable career. If you aren’t creating something in your spare time, you aren’t reaching your full potential.

Unfortunately, most people can’t find the time, energy or correct life priorities to start and complete creative side projects. They keep putting off planning these projects, never finding out what they could have accomplished if they’d only created something.

Instructor Bryan Cohen is no stranger to creative productivity. He’s earned more than $35,000 in the past few years from his side business, Build Creative Writing Ideas. His 30 books, all of which were written in the past few years, have sold more than 20,000 copies. He achieved this success through the life-enriching tips he learned by reading dozens of books, attending multiple conferences and through his own trial and error.

He’s put in hundreds of hours of refining his creativity techniques so that you don’t have to. By using Cohen’s tips and tricks, you’ll start planning your business, book, blog or course in the next few days with optimized time, renewed energy and an improved balance in your life.
