Weren't they a little on the high side $ like 100.00 a set? I was thinking about getting a set but it just never got past the "thinking about it" stage.

When buying stuff out of the U.S. it can be scary at times especially when the mail is running slow. You will probably get them when you least expect them. :wink:

Yeah I bought a set of those too, I have yet to see them as Gilbert told me he was sending them express, I think I could have flown there and picked them up quicker.... I talked to another person who bought a set and he told me Gilbert had sent him parts in the past ok, so I trusted his word.... hopefully they show up ok or I'm out $110.00 dollars.

if they were sent express it should take around 10 days. i have ordered items from china that only took 7 days.

I'm doing that now but for zwitter parts.. :roll:

I had to figure out what a Rodevagen was, anyway I wish thesamba had
a mechanism to escrow... (hint hint) purchases. Not PayPal! but something
that we could use with some confidence when dealing with overseas aquisitions or sales.
