I'm selling a few parts on eBay that I thought we would use on the Trans Am I'm rebuilding. We decided to do an OEM style rebuild, so we're going to reuse some parts instead of replacing with aftermarket, etc.
Anyway, I have a set of the PMD/Viscounts seats that I've been trying to sell. I've got this guy from Brazil that is interested in them, but a quick calculation at the UPS site shows that it would cost him around $4k for shipping, if I break up the shipment into 4 boxes. One large package would be about $1,100. For some reason, the prospective buyer wants 4 boxes. I expect a pretty pricey bill for shipping, but that seems a little absurd. Any of you guys shipped anything internationally before? If so, do you have any recommendations on who to ship through?
Oh yeah, I'm concerned about getting taken for a ride/scammed, but the wife is pushing for me to sell to anyone interested, no matter the hassle.
