Are you serious Jay? :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :roll: :roll: :roll:

Shipping would be at least that much -= especially if he wants to PERSONALLY ESCORT the car here!! :lol: :lol:

Nice to be back!!

Yep Jason, you are missing something...... U P S

I just tried to use the UPS online calculator...... damn, that's a nasty piece of work!!!! But anyway, to send a 16" by 12" by 10" package weighing about 5lb to you from him in Ohio was to cost over US$200 at the CHEAPEST rate... lord knows what his actual measurements are....

The other thing to realise is that he was charging US$30 to ship INSIDE the US!!!!

Think you've been dudded matey...... especially compared to the Schumacher Nitro 10 I'm getting shipped here at the moment.... costing US$45.90 for USPS Priority Mail International...

Sorry bro...

Alex

Jason,
My offer still stands, also I was the second high bidder so if he offers it to me I would be more than happy to ship it your way as well. PM me with what you think and we can get this car to you one way or another. :wink:

Hello Konich,
Your generousity astounds me, thankyou. Mate it sounds like you could do with this car more than me. I dont realy want to tell the seller that he can offer the car up to the second highest bidder but if you want to cover the costs of my auction win (with shipping to yourself) I could arrange for the car to be sent to you and you could pay for it directly if you like. If not Im still happy to take it. Let me know, cheers-Jason.

tell him not to waste his time with ups and to package it up to protect it from getting scratched, take it straight to usps and post it first class international.

I have shipped many a car abroad, and it have never cost more than $60 USD. USPS will be the cheapest option. -Good luck.
