I'm looking at buy a motor/gearbox from Melbourne but I'd need to have packed and shipped up here. Any ideas on who might be able to do this for me?

...also what $$$ would it be?

ask your local vw parts dealer who they use

Once on a pallet, you should pay no more than $120..

I am about to embark on getting a gearbox from tamworth to the gold coast....I rang Toll who I deal with through work and they wanted .....wait for it.....$650!!!! Fortunately the fellow selling me the box was able to organise it through his work with TNT for $54 (just a bit of a difference hey!).

So not sure, but I guess TNT might be worth a call, although you may need an account with them?
