shire350Z Posted January 5, 2008 Author Posted January 5, 2008 yeah adam must declare everything as it is and state its actaul price whereas other companies will say its alot less value than what it actually is so it gets them more custom as ppl dont pay import duties!!! im thinking that anyways!!! Quote

martinmac Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 And then it gets lost and you claim on the insurance..... I can get an exhaust shipped form the states in 2 days for $900. The longer it takes so probably about £200-250 for a reasonable rate. Quote
shire350Z Posted January 5, 2008 Author Posted January 5, 2008 how much bloody hell must be able to be done cheaper than that then you'd have import duty on that!!! Quote
martinmac Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 Think the cheapest I heard of was £675 delivered. Quote
Adam@Z1auto.com Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 alot of firms out there will declare the item as a gift, or say its a warranty replacement. The problem with doing that is that as mentioned, if its lost or damaged in transit, you are screweed....zero recourse whatsoever. We've got very advantageous shipping rates worked out on these things, since we send so many of them over on a monthly basis. And, not a single one has been damaged in transit that I am aware of.

martinmac Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 At the end of the day you want a good product at a good price delivered in a reasonable time frame with piece of mind. It can only get so cheap Quote
Adam@Z1auto.com Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 Martin..while we're on topic, I'm expecting the "missing" item to finally arrive here the 18th Quote
martinmac Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 :yahoo: :teeth: Sorry, that may be a little over the top Thanks Adam for a very good deal. Just to explain... http://www.intensepower.com/inhanbokit35.html Quote
shire350Z Posted January 6, 2008 Author Posted January 6, 2008 so whats the keenest price you could do the nismo exhaust for adam? and how much duty would i have to pay on top off that!!! Quote
Andy Posted January 7, 2008 Posted January 7, 2008 Managed to get my Nismo for £700 including 4 day delivery from the States with no import duty to pay! Quote

Andy Posted January 7, 2008 Posted January 7, 2008 I would, and am, happily recommending him. The transaction was effortless and the exhaust was perfect. Kept me in the loop with delivery info and times all the way through Quote
shire350Z Posted January 7, 2008 Author Posted January 7, 2008 can u match this price then adam?? or big phil? maybe Envy even>>?? Quote
Adam@Z1auto.com Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 the problem is they are not declaring any value at all, or trying to pass it off as a gift or a warranty replacement. If we do that, and its lost or damaged, you have nothing to show for it. I would not want to take that risk. It also is a surefire way for customs to spot it and hold it for inspection/re-valuation. Is that worth it to save $50 or $100? I wouldn't want to take that risk if I were a buyer. You can find out from members here what they paid after duties...the charges are not that expensive at all relative to the size/weight and value of the item. We have sent a ton of them over There is a reason why we've sent close to 50 exhausts to the UK in recent months alone....we do things the right way, with insurance and door to door delivery Quote
