Shipping is very expensive.

When ever I ordered through them I would use a freight forwarding company.

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.

Fuck those cunts.

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....Smile

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..

That's completely different Russell. You may have a verified account but you need a verified or confirmed address for some of them to be happy.

In the US and Canada they can use a credit card to confirm the address that is signed up with it. There is no such thing 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.
