My understanding is for car parts, it's GST on customs value + customs fees (~$40).

not car related but i picked up a couple of "SK68" clone LED torches for emergencies...these little babies are powered by 1 AA battery and can throw a beam over 100 meters! probably put one in the flare holder of the MX. also picked up a solar charger from super cheap auto for 25 bucks as im sick of the battery going flat.

Thats why I asked to have a look and left my number. They change offsets with years and you can get custom sets.

My thinking was that a custom ordered set or even just a regular genuine set would have a much higher start price

to be honest what gets me is his price for rims + 4 tyres.....
if they are genuine work equips I would expect a start price double his opening price of $600.

I suspect they are knock offs, but it still seems like a good deal.

I hope like hell these are genuine.

If someone buys them under that impression and they aren't there is nothing they can do "legally"
