Was going to place an order for some small things from
https://www.burtonpower.com/

and thought that i would offer if someone wanted anything small from the to maybe consider adding it in to save a little on postage...

Just an option, only small and will be placing it early next week.

Cheers

LOL...

Well im going to be ordering some type 9 speedo drive gears cos i can find them anywhere here(if anyone knows please let me know), and maybe some badges.

Pretty much only small bits but can always look to see how much whatever ppl ask for will put on the postage to weither i bother or not...was almost considering a rocker cover but wouldn't want to know the postage of that considering 6 small parts is over 30pound!!!

Cheers

Alloy rocker cover for a pinto cost me nearly $100 in freight a while back Bryan. Doubt much would have changed since.

30quid start-up plus 6.50 for every KG but I have found that they usually dud you a KG or 2 IE TNT weight the parcel at 4kg Burtons will charge you for 6 which really sux but it seems to have happened on all my orders as they calculate the freight as you add things to your basket

Ask them if they will send the parts by air mail, rather than courier. It is much cheaper. The courier will certainly get the stuff to Australia quicker but you certainly pay a premium for the service. My last order was sent TNT. What excrement service they provide. I have also noticed that you get touched up in the weight of the parcel.

You also need to consider that they price on volume as well as weight. That normally accounts for the difference between in price.

Checked the cubic & the dead weight was the greater as far as price goes mail will beat courier up to a point,about 1 or 2 kg than a courier is cheaper (Burtons use mail for things like carby jets) as far as TNT's service goes my last order left Burtons Friday & I had it in Lismore the following Tuesday
