I placed an order with PBR on Friday 12 June by email at 10PM, and I thought by Monday that maybe I should have heard from them, but thought oh well they are obviously busy and probably dont work over weekends and I'm sure I'll hear from them sometime this week because normally they are really good, and then lo and behold got home from work the next day ( Tuesday 16 June ) and my box of bits is sitting at home waiting for me.

And the point of all this is the postage costs were USD9.65 for a parcel weighing 7 LBs or 3.5 Kilos in our language.

Gotta say I was gobsmacked.

I have heard though that if you complain to Marcos about high postage costs they will normally reduce it. Apparently there computer system automatically adds in a high price when its an O'S order. Yeah , I know its a pissweak excuse but its worth pushing the issue with them if they have the goodies you're wanting.

You cannot beat PBR as an Overseas parts seller. People complain about the fact they don't have an "easy to follow" website or ordering process, but if it was not for them, there would be many more machines in landfill.




Yeah I agree Nino, they are the best in the business.
And I think their system is real easy.
Going to the post office for a money order and sending it off isn't rocket science
