    just ordered some stuff off them so hopefully should get it this week.
    Life is difficult because it is non-linear.

    let me know how that goes will ya.

    what payment option did you use?
    how big where the items you purchased?
    was shipping and handling expensive?
    did customs nab you for tax?

    Jez I'm all questions today, sorry - but christmas is coming and I need to find a very clear path for my other half to follow so that I get my shiny bits and bobs in time

    cheers

    how big where the items you purchased? biggest item was a double bubble screen. All the rest were fairly small.
    was shipping and handling expensive? $100 - so not quite as cheap as I expected but I guess it was too bad.
    did customs nab you for tax? hopefully not - will hopefully will know by the end of the week

    Please keep us posted and let us know how you found dealing with them, delivery times etc. They have a very big range so if you have a good experience I may have to do some shopping.
    Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

    Well the bits turned up today Everything was really well packed and the customer service was really good. Everything was exactly like what I wanted.

    The only problem I had, which cause the bits to be a few days late was with the stupid banks. Who would have thought that when you xfer money from an NZ bank to a US bank it has to go through a middle bank that just happens to want a cut of your money!!! Which ment my order was short $22US! So a word of warning check this out before you try it.

    Edit: Oh and I didn't end up having to pay any tax on the way in but this doesn't mean it wont happen on another order.

    One reason Paypal is good.(Some will not accept payment from a non confirmed address)At the most it will cost 3% of the total if the seller elects to tack on the paypal fee.I have something like 80 or 90 paypal transactions to date without a problem.
