With the US dollar doing so badly I'm tempted to collect some part(s) (motor) from the states. I've done a few calls on shipping. It seems really expensive to ship (~500 $) and the red tape at border (~150 $) makes it all very confusing to me.
Has anyone gone through the process?
The freight forwarders don't seem too interested in dealing with an individual hence the high prices. I found a custom broker and he told me to get an import/export account which was easy enough to do.
I tempted to do a part run during the Christmas break. Would anybody else be interested in that sort of thing? I just need to sell the idea of driving to Phoenix and back to my wife LOL
