Thread: buying from England

Its dead easy, Ive gotten heaps of stuff including stuff like pistons with never a problem!!

very easy you just have to be aware that heavier items can be costly due to freight charges ,I have recently purchased several items no problem cheers ken

Dead easy. I saved a fortune on my rear window struts, paid about $26 to the door as opposed to $60 locally at the time. The AU$ has fallen a bit lately but not by much

My only experience is having ordered some gearbox overhaul kits from the UK. Ordered the parts one Friday night online, and they were delivered to my door the following Monday! Must say I was seriously impressed.

Dead easy - just got a full lift kit delivered. Remember to keep it under $1,000 or you'll get taxed on it.

Yes easy , I phoned around local suppliers for a light switch best they could do $100. Orderd one on line 16.50 +5.50 post = about $35.00 took about a week . cheers jimr1

Heavy Items aren't bad either. I bought a towbar for my Skoda Yeti from the UK

The UK and other place are a really good place to get things cheaper, not everything will be cheaper due to the shipping rates, and if theres a retailer in Australia and you buy from overseas them you may not have a claim with regards to warranty.

The cost difference is nothing to do with Australian companies charging you more, cost is relative to what things cost in different counties, the cost of living ,wages, house, cars, manufacturing are all more he so things will cost more.



However theres some companies out there who make far more profit than they really should be. Support us little guys when ever you can.

Will be Interesting to see what happens with the exchange rates, over the last year we have had 17% change against the pound...
