Then, I get an email saying something like hi, thanks for ordering with us. We will have to charge an additional $550.00 for freight (to Australia).

Now, I know that shipping costs are high to the other side of the world; however, what's the point of having an interactive ordering system where the user can pick his shipping choice and the $ cost of it in the first place??!?

The total value of the order was $1450 and they had the guts to email me saying there is a balance of $550. Great salesmanship ---- noooot.

Anyway, lesseon learnt with Vividracing.

Unfortunately, no Gemini availability for Australia that would be significantly cheaper so I have chosen to the Exoticspeed RII pwr-si system instead. They manage to ship for $200. Copy or not - it's a good price, I like the sound (not too loud) and it's light too.

It's already shipped, expecting arrival in about 2 weeks (after customs clearance in AUS).

Will open a new thread and post review once it's done.

If anyone wants to sponsor me for a pre and post dyno feel free, haha. I'm in Sydney. There's a lot of people curious about the gains from the RII system.


Cheers.
they should fix that. when you are shipping overseas, it is best to just call and talk over the phone. Time difference is bad and you lose out on some sleep but it is the better way to do things.
