it's getting real hard to send a magneto to aussie now, magnetic shit is voodoo on planes

It would make one wonder whether they're C3 or C4 spec or not.

Quite...Another reson for buying locally IMO. If they're not C3 you can refuse to accept them.

No-one left in NZ ? Last one I had done was a guy local to me who still does vintage cars and aircraft - but had to be persuaded to do a bike mag.
He doesn't want to do them cos they're crap quality compared to his usual fare.

I was talking to Paul Greet last weekend and he has set himself up to rewind/rebuild magnetos. Using Argon as an inert gas in the rewind process and manages to get more wire on the armatures so giving a better spark at low revs (kick-starting). This helps our old pommie bikes, especially on Velocettes with their lower kick/spin ratio. Have yet to see his product but he's a sparkie by trade and sounds like he knows what he's on about. He has also been talking to a friend of mine in Australia, Neil Thirle at TT Enterprises who I know does a bloody good job. I guess Neil is who you referred to Spyda? PM me for Paul's contact details. Cheers Nev.

www.shipito.com is my carrier of choice but I have never asked them to move stuff that had "greased" in the description

I've pretty much got bored of going to the local bearing retailers. They can all go out of business for all I care. Saeco I'd been going to for over 20 years but the prices got silly so they can offer their big customers 80% discount and tradies 60% but they seem keen to fuck over the public with stupidly inflated prices and no discount . Fuck em I say.

not sure, peter thomson told me,

Motor parts are clearly listed, with strict rules around their import/export.

I found that firearm parts are a great deal easier to get from the USA, which is strange

I used to use www.buyusa.co.nz, however YOUSHOP made it too tough for them, so they are no longer in business.

I had no idea they suggested i look at the baned list but i looked when i joined you shop for that very reason.
I of course no gasoline or aerosols ;-)
what u said made me more determined to quit you shop.
That and they sent me emails saying hurry up and pay after 2 weeks, i spent 2 grand with them . and i knew where cheaper options but wanted to support nz company.
Mind you know matter it goes though them anyways weather its dhl or fed ex. i really impressed with fed ex .
considering how much volume they must have there systems are spot on esp for tracking amazing. nz post are exellent too.
