Dont get me started !!
Yeh I have bought quite a few bits from usa what pi$$es me off is, if it does get intersepted by the customs they then charge you again for the postage even though I have paid door to door.
I got some air bags that where sent from US, arrived in UK in TWO days, then held by customs in UK for 3wks! plus extra p/p.
A mate in US sent me my air ratchet over to me wrapped it up SOLID with about 5 layers of tape when it arrived the corner of the box had been ripped open by the customs and NOT tapped back up just left WIDE OPEN and they sent it on to me with a p/p charge !!! GRRRR I was so lucky that the post office etc were honest and also it not falling out at any point on its trip.
Then again I got a piston for my crosser in 4days!!! from Nevada before I had even paid the guy for it and it was £10 cheaper than the same make one I ordered n paid for in Blackpool, and I am still waiting for -------------4yrs later !!!
