Hi You think that was bad. I seen a gasket set on ebay for my old honda and sent a message to them (beavercycle in Canada)asking for postage to Australia. The reply I received this week was $3,000,000. If they dont want our busness from down under why say they will post world wide.

There are several members here that will buy from a US distributor (if these are from the US) and then ship off to you if you are willing to cover the cost at no profit to the BA.com member.

and the actual postage from my house to Paul's ended up being just over 100 bucks less than that

That is a great idea and way of doing things, we could look to reciprocate by posting from the Uk to you guys in the US when needed. Lets beat those money grabbers into submission.

ive helped a few Bros out from time to time .i will say tho if your sending stuff over the pond to the UK use USPS and write on package returned item, saves them the duties etc. anybody need maple syrup or gasket sets etc from Canukland lemme know.

Did it cost you much more than that for you to get them Paul?

I didn't order Edge brackets as I thought that if they were going to charge that much to post they didn't want my order!
So I chose Easy brackets,with free post to US and Roadworthys reduced postage still came to $203.25
Fast Eddy has a good deal there.
