I'm still waiting for the little old granny who has zero technical savvy and no phone or tablet to speak of, come busting through customs and be told they need to do everything online...
My family came through last week, while we did not use them (used my phone), it appears as if they have a few tablets set up against the wall for people who do not have phones or the app, to sign into and create their entry.
Unfortunately, prices area going up globally and have been since COVID…buying directly from the manufacturer, there have been zero drops in prices for the physical merchandise. For the Bahamas, the only variable factor at the moment is the cost of shipping the product into the country, that seems to have stabilized and might even be dropping slightly…but not enough to counterbalance the still increasing prices from the manufacturers standpoint, which is the primary snowball effect once you start adding in shipping, VAT, Duty, VAT on the duty. When you start off with that higher FIRST cost from the manufacturer, every step along the way, just makes it more and more expensive.
