that seems quite cheap

[pig75]

I was looking one for a MU about 4 months ago the price was good but the shipping and all the bank fees was the killer

[geeves]

Sound like that price is us dollars

[MrBIGHORN]

Mite be in USD but its still cheaper than $380.00.
My wife was looking over my shoulder and took my visa.

[geeves]

you dont have a spare????

[geoff]

Just wondering. Are there any pthers keen for one of these.
Shipping is $50 USD.
I figure 3 snorkels @ $75 usd=$225USD + $50 shipping=$275 USD, convert to NZD =$400.98 +gst at customs=$450 divided by three= about $150 Plus any customs charges per person.
If theres enough interest I'll phone customs.

Count me in as 1 anyways

Any other takers??

[Demonic]

Your saying $150 for a snokel if there are 3 ppl who are keen? Id be keen but would like to see a bigger/better photo to compare with local products.

[geoff]

Hi

Just had another email from them, freight for 3 is USD $75 , not $50 so only a little dearer than what I said.

But still damn cheap I reckon. I'll email and hit him for a better photo.

I assume you run a MU?

I have emailed asking for better photo to be sent.

[Yarno]

Just remember that yellow looking MU is a Landwind and may have different plumbing inside the guard, but knowing the Chinese they would have just copied the lot...

[geoff]

Mate I cant tell the difference lol

I made them send me a photo of the car itself and they sent a pic of a 2dr std MU.

I assume it will fit the wizard as well but I'm no expert.

[geoff]

Ok I have been sent some pics but cant get them to load.

I get a message when uploading that the diamensions of the image could not be confirmed or something.

I have them on my flickr account.

One is of the snorkel another of the model it fits.

Have a look.

Can anyone help with uploading these so they show?

Cheers

Geoff

[Demonic]

looking at the i'd be your second. only question for them is what sort of ETA would we be looking at. Work has gotten thing before form other countrys and it taken 3 months to arrive..

But yeah... Looks good. I just hope that the neck is widish like the safari ones so there no restriction.... It seems a lil taller then the safari one aswel.

[Yarno]

your pics




and Landwind one

[geoff]

Thanks Yarno

Can you tell me how you did it so I know in future?

Cheers

Geoff

[Yarno]

I use firefox, you need to right click on the image and either view it and then copy the address bar, put it in the img boxes, or right click the image and go to properties and copy the location from that them put it between the img boxes...

[geoff]

Cool thanks man, I was just copying the address bar and pasting between the img tags.


So we need another taker.............................................anyone?

[LittleBuddha]

I'm keen but in Oz, they told me they'd have to send 5 any australian takers? Freight was wuoted at $30 per cubic metre to brisbane. Your freight sounds higher than that. They also have good side steps.

[LittleBuddha]

my reply was:

Thank you for your reply.

1.Once you have confirm your order quantity to us.So we could confirm the CBM for you too.

2.Our Snorkel (ISUZU) minimum order quantity for 5 pieces each model.

3.Our Tyre deflators TD01 order quantity for 50 set.

4.Our Side steps HD52 (PJ-CO51) order quantity for 10 pieces.

5.Our Roof rack SZ071 (SZ-D015) order quantity for 10 pieces.

6.For the PJ223.Once we plan to open them that we will let you konw soon.

We hope you could confirm your order quantity to us.So we could go ahead next step for you.

roof racks looked great but 10 pieces is a lot (freight would be a factor they are selling basket and all components to fit for around $100US
