Does any one have a trusted /favourite website that they buy bits and peices from when the local guys just are to dear or dont care , ??

Have purchased a bit of gear from these guys - http://www.cruisercustomizing.com/ - need to watch freight costs and if you use fedex you will find that they will charge you gst if the total order including freight exceeds NZ$400, I tend to choose the cheapest freight US postal services takes up to a couple of weeks but seems to miss the get collection. CrusierCustomising lets you select insurance for $2 a parcel so good value

I've been waiting a month for something from cruisercustomizing.com - but the stuff I got from them previously arrived pretty quick.

I've dealt with the following outfit a fair number of times now, perfect service and VERY fast freight times...

Just found that out ! Another $152 on the price of a transponder. They didn't have another option on the freight

+1 for ebay, using paypal. check the feedback and youre sorted.
massive variety, and I agree that ebay sellers tend to be more willing to provide fast efficent and friendly service that tardme sellers.
