Default Help needed from a Kansas Fordbarner

I hoping someone from/near Eudora in Kansas can help me with shipping from Kansas to Australia.

I recently bought two brake drums on Ebay from a seller in Eudora. He agreed to ship them to me in Oz but then changed his mind due to a couple of buyers claiming they never received their orders.

So I'm hoping someone could pick them up from the seller, find out how much it will cost to ship them to me (I'll pay you shipping plus something for your time through Paypal) then ship them through USPS.

For your peace of mind I'll have the seller leave the box open so you can make sure no other stuff (contraband) is being shipped then the box can be closed.

Kind Regards
Phil

I think your seller has made a better deal. I shipped some large parts to Oz last year thru FedEx. No problem at all and contiuous tracking updates. If he is worried, just have a signature on delivery. I don't think he wants to go thru with the deal.
I will be within 120 miles of there in a week or so. He could ship to my address and I would send them on. I will be back up there in another month if thst is too quick.I bet he will not do it.

Thanks Andy, The seller seems to be OK, I don't have the impression he's trying to wiggle out of the deal, he just doesn't want to ship. I'll let you know if/when I need to get them sent to you. Cheers, Phil

I've shipped hundreds of pouinds of old car parts to a friend in Wharparilla. Something like a brake drum has to go FedEx, and I'm sure you know it won't be cheap. If it doesn't work out with Panelmark, let me know. You'd have to have them shipped to me but I'm familiar with Customs and all that BS.
