Kenshin X 70 Posted July 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 hey folks, just an update. those idiots at zena racing, while they have a 20,000+ pt rep on ebay. doing this group buy through ebay i think is way to risky. they are charging me 145 for each kit delivered but through the many emails and late replies, i've decided to not go ahead to buy from them. now. i've got good news and bad news. the good news is that i've found an Australian Distributor for goodridge brakes and they quickly responded to my enquiry about these brake kits for the sportivo. they can get them in. they said they this part number is an american one and that it may take 2 weeks to arrive here in australia. no biggy. now the bad new is this. SINGLE kits will cost $230.75 + $10 postage :o expensive!!! HOWEVER if 5+ people buy these brake kits they will bring the price down to $177.50 + $12/number of people buying... NICE so provided that there are 5 or more people willing to buy this group buy will go ahead! now you are probably thinking "oh its 30 bucks more expensive" yes it is, but by the time i order from the hk mob, the customs will charge an additional customs tax on top of the total cost and the headaches with this group is not worth it. let alone brining my rep down too. also.... SUPPORT AUSTRALIAN BUSINESSES!!! your call guys, the more buyers we get the more cheaper it is! ;) Link to post Share on other sites
Kenshin X 70 Posted July 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 ok another update... there was a misunderstanding between me and the guys in hong kong, now we have established a mutual agreement that the parts can be discounted for me. i am now going to order them from their shop. I will most likely be using DHL/UPS/EMS registered and signature required delivery and tracking. so you can be assured that this will be delivered to my door in the quickest possible fashion.the price is final at 125USD a kit which is a bloody bargain!!! this does not include postage and what not and i'll ask them to write on the box in such a way that we dont have to pay any import tax when it reaches australian shores ;)ONLY TWO DAYS LEFT GUYS!!! MAKE IT QUICK!!! :)when i get the chance i'll post the whole convo we had on ebay so you guys dont think i'm bullsh#tting :P Link to post Share on other sites

Kenshin X 70 Posted July 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2011 ok so I have a final price of 125USD+25USD postage for each set of braided lines. these will be sent via DHL Express and I will receive in few days from either UK or goodridge factory in HK. if they don't have any in stock, they will have to make them and send them to HK and then to us. This will probably take 2 weeks. I'm waiting on one member to answer my pm and once I receive his money ill order them straight away. people in Melbourne I know where u live so u can COD if u want.
