You only pay duty on thing over $1000 if i remember right
And its not that much
If you import a complete motor and declare it as say 3000 you screw your self
Better to buy it in pieces send it as separate items and pay no duty

So, you plan to import all that and declare it as less than $1000?:confused: I only mentioned the import duty because it IS an extra cost usually. The transfer case alone is over $1000 value thats why I mentioned the 300Tdi example.

That would be illegal so no
I plan on importing several packages on several days from several suppliers
Completely legal less duty than a whole single order
You do want to do things the hard way Steve!
:eek:
Not really i just don't want to spend money for the sake of it if there is another option
Not wanting to rain on your parade, but don't you think customs might notice all this stuff going to the same address? (there's a hint there if you're smart)Quote:

Try Rovacraft for the LT 230, they are the Australian distributors for Ashcrofts. Mine cost me $1475 from memory plus 60 delivery to Qld.
Cheers Mick.
Why is it strange that i would buy things from overseas
I'm not trying to rip anyone off its legal and it is the way its done
If you want to buy a $1000 item you pay duty if you dont want to pay duty don't buy things over $1000
Whats wrong with that
Got a GOOD quote for a transfer case today
From Rovacraft Thanks Killer for the heads up on where to shop
It is a better price than i had been quoted from wreckers for a second hand dunga one
