Hi all, well story goes I bought the wheels back in August from private seller on this forum in the US, they didnt get shipped till December! (don't get me started on that)
The wheels and shipping back then came to $2792 then there was the shock of the broker custom fees (port chargers, levies, Inspection fees etc) which came to $666. I was lucky for them to accept the value as under $1000AUS otherwise I would have been hit with GST and duty taxes.
So all up total came to $3,458AUS and then with the sale of my 18's (got a guy picking them up today fingers crossed I get $2,500) i end up out of pocket $958
Oh and thats not the end of it! 2 out of the 4 wheels have a scuff on them from rubbing together, So I now got to try and put a claim through and get them repaired
Now for the lessons!! Will I ever do this excercise again NO WAY. Absolute nightmare, and as you can see very $$$ initially.
If anyone is thinking doing the same you may want to do your research and get a OFFICIAL quote from your broker so you dont get hit with hidden fees like I was!
Enough bitching.. Now for pics check my album
