Hi Donn 
 
Obvioulsy its not my place to comment, but if we can help at all please do feel free to email Chris here who deals with our australian enquiries: 
 
crees@vwheritage.com 
 
I know the guys have been working on restructing the postage costs too as it is current done on value only. This should see it getting even cheaper
for you guys. 
 
I hope that helps, 
 
All my best 
 
Alex

So it seems that it's the way to go, surprisingly freight seems very  reasonable   and as I have been searching Oz for weeks wiithout success if I get a good answer after the weekend I'll be sending some Oz$ to
the UK

Seems like they may have adjusted the freight rates, just tried a comparison with a couple of parts and the rates quoted are good. 
 
Their products are of good quality and worth the extra effort.

I've used them a few times and apart from the high freight costs their product and customer service has been top notch. 
 
When I have a problem with them shipping the wrong part on 2 seperate occasions, they went out of their way to fix the issue.

Hi 
 
Thanks for all the kind comments. 
 
As said in my first post you should be noticing cheaper postage rates now as we have altered the way its calculated to try and make it fairer. 
 
Hope that helps 
 
Cheers 
 
Alex
