Ok, so after giving up on finding an mtech 2 bumper in the uk, I have located one in Germany...

The seller has said postage is too expensive, but hasn't elaborated with a price...


Has anyone on here had experience with shipping bumpers / shipping bumpers within E.U?

Can anyone on here offer assistance? Truckers, vehicle importers, 'ring goers, holiday makers etc etc.


Thanks


p.s wasn't sure which forum to post this.

Why would he care about postage cost, it's the buyer that has to pay. Sounds like he can't be bothered.

Many people don't like playing the international shipping lottery . The chances of damage are very real, as are the chances of a buyer playing the Paypal chargeback game :(
