Stuff I've got
from the US and shipping costs.
Props, usualy about $40, and takes about 7 days or $10 and wait 6 weeks.
Misc. parts like gaskets and small pieces in box roughly 1'x1', $25
Jackplate $35, but 6 weeks by surface
The cowl mold, FedEx wanted $960 for each box, there's 2!
Eventualy got it shipped at a better price!
I've only been charged VAT on about half of the stuff, depends if it comes with the mail or by courier.
Oh yeah
and a 20' container with a boat in it, that cost a bit! I did have to pay VAT on that...
I have found US postal service to be the best, if you can get an idea of what the package will weigh, by weighing the old part or a similar part go here,
http://ircalc.usps.gov and calculate the cost, it's usualy spot on.
Also I don't think you pay VAT on waranty returns
