Yeah BMA is US$595 (US$170 more!) + postage + any duty imposed that's why I was l was considering using this guy. I've sent some questions to him so I should have a better idea about postage etc.

Have you considered the Konis. Pundit paid just over 1K for them front and rear from a supplier in Melbourne. The only reservations I would have from the ebay dude is what will happen if you need to return or shock absorber for warranty purposes.

Yes the warranty thing is what is making me think more towards BMA. Konis don't so it for me. Nor does spending 1K!!!

looks like lots of people have dealt with him....most common complaints seen to be "no receipt" and "box was damaged". Since you need these shipped to OZ, I'd probably vote "NO".

$.02 or Australian $.05

Since you need these shipped to OZ, I'd probably vote "NO". $.02 or Australian $.05Last time I got some shocks from the US, one had 'shot through' the end of the box and had been collected by the post people and re-packaged for me. The boxes are simply not strong enough for posting... that said, if they deliver it it is unlikely they will have damaged it any!
