Kim can you U2U me the name of the guy you are dealing with. Just interested.

Still waiting for my pop outs to arrive from the states. 8 weeks and counting. Getting nervous now. Sure it will be fine but the waitings the hard part. Especially with something thats very breakable.

Dean,

friend of mine waited over 3 months for his stuff to turn up - so I wouldn't panic just yet

Okay, time for my input. I have bought over 100 items from overseas at a guess.

2 words. Reputable businesses.

I am firstly surprised that you didn't buy from Hardings originally Kim, it all filters out in the wash as far as cash is concerned.

Secondly, if one was looking to buy from overseas, why wouldn't buy the 'real deal' in original Robri Stone guards, instead of the Flat4 version. ISP West in the States is where I got mine. About $450 total, landed.

Another word we should learn is 'eBay'. Need I say more. For example where did you find this guy? If it was from eBay, then ya shoulda used eBay to buy the guards.. At least then you can tarnish his future with negative feedback if necessary.

Maybe ask around next time I guess. Someone will know where you can get things, specially me, cause I have already done alot of the hard work for ya. 🙂

Here's my latest purchase by the way.. :P

Kim, some of us had bad experience on the net, I lost $390US for a pair of Hella horns similar on my brother split be careful
always check their profile and the Americans always send their item by surface thats why it takes three months to get here, all I can say is be careful dealing with Germans and check with Americans regarding on your shipping arrangement, make sure you inform the seller not to send it by surface.
