    for sure



    how it works to my knowlage is, they basically buy from the seller, get it sent to there place in japan, and then ship it over. but we have to pay for postage from melbourn when it gets here.

    are there prices good for what you get, e.g. i used there cost calculator set of coil overs for sprinter just to check prices and it said around 1600, which is pretty good i guess, so do they and on any extras after that besides the postage in aus? hidden charges e.t.c?

    seams all ligit to me jsut doesnt seam like anyone on here has used them from what i can gather.

    if its a small item and you're in melbourne then I can buy from yahoo at cost for ya. Otherwise yeah go with one of the auction traders as its just not worth the hassle.

    80% of my 86 is built using yahoo parts
