Hi Guys,
We're looking at getting a part shipped from the U.S.
It will weigh 60 pounds and the dimensions are 42"x19"x8".
I was wondering if anyone here had any experience with shipping parts internationally. Getting quotes can be difficult at times, and the prices range immensely!
Does anyone know a good courier company who wont ask for my right arm and kidneys as a down-payment?
Cheers,
Ash n Bob

Hi
Try a good old US mail. You can work out prices on their website. Don't use UPS etc, they know how to charge.

it All adds up to a hefty price to get it here...
US Mail is the cheapest
it may take a few months to get it though...

A mate of mine brought home a cylinder head for his Sunbeam Tiger on the plane - and that's a Ford cast iron V8 cylinder head. Quaintarse were going to hit him for excess baggage until he suggested they looked at his travel record - he was flying first class to the US every three weeks. "Have a nice flight"
