Joe cat,

Thank you for your help. I work for Directed Electronics, and we import/export parts back and forth to Europe all the time. Although the pricing does appear to be cheap actually too cheap, there are a lot of individuals involved in this purchase and I am the one that will be responsible for everything. Considering, I would rather route the logisitics through Directed Electronics. If anything goes wrong, it will be me that everyone will crucify. Thank you for your help, but to ease my nerves and the comfort level for all buyers I would perfer to handle the logisitics here.

Dear, dear Caractere, Please dous all a favor and call me. 717 898-9024. I was explaining to beetle cup yesterday that our 88 year old company FC GERLACH - you can visit us at www.fcgerlach.com move 800-900 containers a year and we have direct contracts with the steamship lines. Of course those rates are cheap they are my cost- as I offered earlier. Please before you jump to that conclusion of not working with me- Please consider speaking with me over the phone. After speaking with beetlecup- I told him that I would contact my england office and get us rates by morning, I will give you their contact number to verify- DON'T MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY WITHOUT SPEAKING TO ME.


To verify so far, Our office in London is as follows, Please call to verify

Contact: Paul Cooper
Account and IT Development Manager.

Paycocke Road, Basildon, Essex,
SS14 3DW.

Please tell him that he spoke to joe cat this moring regarding the used plastic car parts for Joe Cats personal shipment.

We are still working on a few different options on getting the kits here. We are trying to work a few angles to see if we can get the costs down as much as possible for everyone. If there is anyone else interested. We have 1 kit left.

here would be my charges if i were to do it

250.00 to send my guy there to take an inventory and confirm they are real
300.00 to have a trucker pick them up and bring them back to the warehouse

400.00 to have the container stuffed
Between 450-750 to have the container brought to the pier
2170.00 to get the container here
100.00 entry to get the freight into the commerce of the usa
45.00 bond fee (you must pay unless you have a continuous bond- too much to explain- just trust me)

Plus duty -if any

and then my trucker will deliver to my basement in lancaster, pa zip 17601
$975.00

Safe and sound

Joe Cat

Ok so we finally have a price. The kits will be $2,500 plus shipping to your door. If you choose to pick up your kit they are shipping out of Atlanta. If you have questions please feel free to IM me.

$2,500 included the freight to get the kit from Europe to the US. The total international freight is split evenly among all the kits. The only other charge is the cost to ship from Atlanta to you.

Contact Gingerbeetle for the kits. I never bought them because all buyers turned out to be dead beats.

most people wont buy theses for 2500 and have to put that much or more into fitting them to the car. I have a kit I imported from VWMS 2 years ago and still making brackets to make the side skirts and door sills fit properly. I have 8 grand into making mine fit properly. theres more involved in this than bolting the kit on many pieces cant be bought and have to be made its a huge head ache. Not recommended for a daily driver because you cant replace any of the parts if damaged.
