On a side note, I ordered a small item from Amazon recently. There was no indication of where in the world it was but the seller had a good rap so I went with it.
Got the email saying my item had been shipped, so I went to have a look at the tracking through Amazon. This stated that ...... "The carrier has not provided tracking details for this shipment at this time." And when I look a little further down I see......."Carrier: Latvian post" :eek2:
I'll just keep my fingers crossed.
I’ve had a few parts from that neck of the woods. It’s fine. Good prices as their market prices are lower
Agreed. My experience has been the same. OE alternator and starters and related tend to be a good buy from that region.
Was that Amazon AU or Amazon USA??Quote:

The Island 4x4 shipment was well over AU$1000 and I had to pay GST separately but the shipping company (DHL I think) contacted me the day before it arrived in Oz and I paid over the phone with no delay to shipment. I spent big at Ascroft's but broke it up into two shipments so that each was sub AU$1000 inc freight = no GST on either. This was still cheaper than a putting it all together as a single shipment over AU$1000 + GST.
