I've only used shipito.com once after hearing all the sound reviews. Service is very simple, can easily save some money. But my shipment arrived damaged. Seller told me to take it up with the freight forwarder. I requested to make a claim for damages, they asked me file a claim through their website. At the time there was only an option to file for a lost claim. I did this anyway, uploaded photos through there plus tried emailing them. They kept saying to 'file for a damage claim'. After 22 days I logged in to their website and found a NEW link for a damages claim on my home page that allows me to upload photos for a damages claim. I did it. I send an email right away and get a reply a few days later saying I'm past Fedex 21 day police. Umm Bit frustrated because I did everything right and still got the shaft. I know my experience is in the minority but I'm not sure if anyone has had to file a claim for damages before, this was my first time ever and it was an epic fail. Sent them multiple emails and never heard back from them since. |

That is not good, was planning to get the LCI tail lights from Tisher.
BMW AU is so pathetic, prices are always overboard which leads to lost in revenue. That is why we are forced to sourced parts from overseas. |

I've got hit up for customs for the first time ever, got a letter from Australia Post saying they are holding my parcel. Do people usually use a broker at this point (if so can you recommend one) or is it as simple as filling in a form?

Another option to consider;
http://www.priceusa.com.au/ are good for shipping from the US! Used them before for various purchases. They are based in Bendigo Victoria. cheers |

I got the BMW performance suspension from United BMW. Was $1275. I just filled in the form myself and got an invoice 2 days later for $267. Not that happy as I have bought more expensive stuff from overseas before and not gotten stopped.
