could have bought the stuff over with him then eh.

Marco's postage costs are a down right rip off.. its a fact that gets stated over and over again. - shame we didnt know he was here, would have been nice to ask him direct why he charges way more than anyone else at $30 - $40US postage, then when questioned claims a mix up with another order and claims $20 is the best they can do... yep, ive been there, so has Gorgar by the sounds of it... anyone else care to join the "half my original price "club?

I wont deal with them anymore, theres nothing they sell that cant be sourced from other outlets if you shop around

Their postage has been a rip off for YEARS. Even the local freight was too high. They lost a lot of customers because of this. They stuffed me around with a Jurassic Park Topper and Early Stern flipper plungers. I HAD to order them from Marcos, as they were the only supplier of the plungers and they STATED the JP Topper WAS IN STOCK.  The only reason I bought from Marco was for the Topper and plungers.

AFTER - I had placed the order and AFTER they took the $$$, they told me the Topper was "no longer available" - and the plungers are now REPLACED with a generic plunger I could have sourced locally. Their emails took 4 days to get answered and the parts suddenly appeared on my doorstep. US$36 for a box of parts 1/2 the size of a shoebox.

I've ordered a box from PBR tenfold the size of the Marco order, for half the shipping cost.

Never again...

I once needed a set screw for the Bigfoot head in a WH2O machine.  The screw would be about 3 or 4 mm long........shipping cost $28USD and no they couldn't or wouldn't put it in a plastic zip lock bag thingy and put it in a normal envelope and post it.  Unbloodybelievable. 

Another order......pictured blue JP slingshot plastics - received the red ones which look crap. 

Last order - won a JD ramp on eBay - stated item would be posted same day as payment received (payed about 5 mins after listing ended by Paypal), asked if I could ship other items with it, a couple of days later I got a reply, "yes up to a certain weight"  I asked whether the item had been sent as stated in the eBay listing cause I had just over $100 bucks worth of parts to order.....no reply to that one and the item turned up a few weeks later.


You think I would have learnt by now wouldn't you.     At least BAA give you jelly beans.

Would be good, if this Marco,, gets to read, this forum..then, he will be aware, that he is pissing off his customers..

I remember the first parts i ever bought cam from marcos i only wanted the gorgar drap target decals and the price was like $80 or something rediculous but for the $80 i could get upto so many pounds of stuff.  Bloody strange way of doing it
