Dave: I am certainly not from australia and have no
idea if he is sort of ripping you; but, then again, looks like cast iron and
heavy; so, maybe he is not. Of course, he may just not be looking for the
cheapest way, either. Give him an email asking for weight. Call ups or fed ex
and see if they can give you a quote for that weight sent to you. At least, then
you will know if he is shooting straight with you or not. He has 27 listings as
seller and all but 1 is good. jofarr
I
just bought a TO4 manifold that I think will fit off of e-bay but it is
located in western Australia.
The
problem is that the guy wants A LOT for shipping, here is what he quoted
including insurance.
AIR EXPRESS- 1 WEEK- $139.00AU
AIR ECONOMY- 2 WEEKS- $118.00AU
BOAT- 12 WEEKS- $84.00AU
Each
AU$ will cost me about $.80. But that still seems pretty steep.
The guy also wants a money order instead of some other way to track the
payment. Does this sound reasonable to those of you who know about
shipping from australia? Its there a better way to make the
payment? Anyone know of a better source for these
manifolds?
