i'm looking at getting some parts that i can only seem to find second hand in america on honda-tech. they are expensive, like the minimum i'm looking at spending is around $3000. i just thought i'd ask if anyone here has ever bought anything off a member of honda-tech and how did it go? i'm kind of worried about sending 3k and receiving nil....

thanks.

Same as dealing with anyone online, just need to be careful and try to find any past transactions they've had (to see what they're like).

You also need to remember that if you're importing >$1000 worth, you'll have to pay customs duties/fees on top as well.

i would like to get mugen rims. at the moment i am getting nothing lol. i'm just working out if in the future i would like to get the rims, whether i will be able to or not. no point in saving for something i won't be able to buy.

I guess if you're worried, your safest bet would to be use paypal for your transactions.
Stay away from western union as well.
