I ordered $400 odd worth of parts from them. After many calls and emails and being given every possible excuse I gave up trying to recover my money or the parts and ordered replacements through other dealers. Wasn't worth the time and long distance calls.

Ive used them many times never a issue and never a problem. Just what happens sometimes when you deal with Yanks I mean Ive had Reputable company like Mvpmotorsport totally fuck me over left, right, and sideways But ive learnt to use the Shipito.com frieght forwarding for everything in USA including buying stuff on the USA poopra Forums.
I dunno whether they think that im a Yank cause the mailing address is in USA so then they give me less Grief I dunno. But yeah as Chappo Said........Pricey, and yeah Best with freight forwarding....

What got me was the yanks and the need to send it to a "verified" paypal address. There is zero way for any one outside of the good ole 'Merica to get one..

Still bashing up against that blockade?
Ahh the glory of signing up for paypal when it was possible.. no idea why it no longer works for Aussies..

Not sure where it would say that then.. everywhere I click it says it's fully Verified.. :/
Edit: Nevermind. I read into it. Apparently the whole mailing you something then you put in the code on the website thing doesn't verify your address, just your account. ??
Because of this, australian paypal accounts don't list address confirmation anywhere, and don't tell you whether they are or are not confirmed, but it's impossible to confirm so for all purposes you have an "Unconfirmed Address" in their eyes. Seems ridiculous that they can mail you something to the address, you put in the code, and it's still not a "confirmed" address.
Apparently the *old* address confirmation system was based on the above ^^. The new 'address confirmation' thing is based on the (confirmed) credit card being billed to the same address as the item being sent. This is thus contingent on the banks/etc in Aus telling paypal where they bill you, something that is apparently against our privacy laws or whatever. (Plus some other crap about an AVS system?). But all in all, it apparently can't be done. Paypal needs to fix their shit really. No reason why they can't mail you something, you put in the code and have that be confirmation enough. _________________

My Shipito.com address is in my paypal addresses and verified So I just use that when shipping in USA and swap back to Aussie when here never had a issue with Shipito.com yet and im not Verified ID wise on their Shipito site and they still send me packages all the time.
