I'm doing it all up.
We're skirting recession here in Australia.
The US $ may fall more due to GM's failure
But there's always the probability that Rio's sale to China may result in confidence in Australia to fall.
So I'm comfortable paying at the rate of $0.82 for my exhaust. @ US$590 = A$719, it's A$69 more than my proposed X-Force Varex, A$69 I can handle. Any more than A$80 might be hard for me to take.
I'm risk adverse.
Please tx the money to me ASAP!
FYI:
RRP for this exhaust is US$455
Our dealer's list price on eBay is US$368 but he milks you on shipping.
The group buy price is US$350.
The only 2 possible increases are:
a) FOREX
b) Non-group buy pricing and possibly shipping alone.
c) You'll have to pay the bank TT charges yourself A$22 locally and our dealer's side US$25 (this one he absorbs since it's a group buy now)
Perhaps its prudent that you wait. For A$150 more, you have the peace of mind that this exhaust is suited after seeing ours.

My gripe is that people today don't read any longer and in this world of instant gratification, no one looks for info before asking for it.
If you read the first post of this thread, the info was there:
Size of box: 44"x12"x15" for the SE exhaust weighing 22 pounds

No offence mate but you posted up pictures and that what I look at first. When we use the metric system, scanning for mm and kg does not turn up any results... I did actually read all the stuff about poeple in - people out. Really exciting like days of our lives.
You should know that the last thing you post is the price.. that's all people look at :D
Thanks for the info - wasn't hard now was it.
Love that car!

No offence taken... .
but perhaps instead of bothering about pictures, reading might help alot more?
Not hard but would have been easier if you'd look first before you jumped? Barely 10 lines into the first post ? Less than a children's book... . I've updated the post now with the metric scale.
All good... .

It's quite bad right now because our dollar is no longer climbing. I'm hoping to only convert at 0.81 - 0.83 as I said before. We're now hovering at 0.79. 2 cents makes a heap of difference on our costs. The bank's rate being at 0.79 means PayPal is sitting at 0.77 which does make it very bad.
It makes a difference of whether I can refund you guys some money or if our payments are it.
Please be patient. I'm involved in this buy too so believe me that I'm just as anxious but I hope you guys can just be patient. By the end of July, you'll have a GReddy strapped to the back of your CJ.
