I don't know how E-bay shipping works in Australia but the shipping from the UK to the US has been cheaper than I can ship items locally, delivery time is a whole different story but so far I have always received my items.

   Don

How ebay shipping goes here.
you buy something on the condition it doesn't come UPS
you pay $130 AUD to have a distributor shipped to Aus
when it gets here, UPS sends you an email saying they have it
and you owe them $100.00 AUD for shipping, $150.00 import duty and $15.00 gst
You explain to them that you have already paid for fright.
and they tell you when you pay the outstanding amount, you can have your parcel

Anyhow, I made my own cam angle sensor that goes in the distributor hole on the V6.
If I could work out how to post pictures....

What on earth is going on in OZ? I saw a survelience video last night of a guy by himself in an elevator without a mask who sneezed and the government has launched a manhunt to catch him and prosecute him. Australia isn't North Korea- why are the people putting up with this?

NZ shuts down the whole country after one person dies of Covid-19? What madness is  happening in the Southern Hemisphere?

All I can say is less than 1200 people have died here and we're inching up the.vaccinations before throwing the Gates open for wholesale death and destruction...

We've "only" lost 635,000 so far over here Mate! Trump was hoping it would wipe out a large percentage of the elderly population & reduce social security pay out, such a business man.

Well rumor has it that Spencer... named after Freddie Spencer arrived a little early.... actually real early... not the we just got married and now we have a baby early... Premature... may be the correct description.
So there's plenty of time to get the car ready for racing, no need to skip, Spence will never be able to go racing any younger...
It's like drinking James... if you don't start at breakfast you can't drink all day
Happy Birthday Spencer
Congrats Doc and Cassie...

Well that's the internets I guess....man can't break his own news anymore...

Yes, 12 weeks early, 1.519kg(Google it), Cassie's  first time in an ambulance, in hospital, having a baby and even on painkillers...didnt even have time to give her an epidural. He's a week old now and doing as well as could be expected. He's still on low pressure CPAP but he's out of the neonatal ICU.

Nice story but he wasn't named after Freddie specifically. His second name is Thomas after my nephew who we lost in March.

Congratulations Mate, I know what you have going there. My twin daughters were born 13 weeks prem at Royal North Shore in Sydney way back in 83, the medical field has come a long way since then.
