All my comments have been directed to this thread only, kevlyn states that he found the car not shermatt and he asked if mat could inspect the car,which was 1 hour away, car was advertised for 14,950 and thats what kevlyn paid, yes i know that shermat organised to have the car picked up and payed the seller for kevlyn , but i have done the exact same thing in california using another respected person on this forum, same deal, car was 1 hour away , car was advertised for 16,000(not a mustang) he inspected the car, could only knock off 250 bucks , but its a real nice car, he even put the deposit down for me before i had given him any money , i sent the money to him and he went and paid the seller and had the tilt truck pick up the car at the same time, he organised to have the car taken to the docks aswell,
all in all a very stress free transaction, and how much did i pay for him to do this,this is a list of my costs on the usa side not including the costs on this side all money is in aussie dollars, this is a quote from his email to me regarding costs from his end.
$2800 shipping,freight,custom clearance in usa +$100 vaseline
$175 flatbed collection of car
$580 for me to go twice ,1 to inspect,2nd to go pay etc
=$3655.00
The gentlmans name is KEN , THANK YOU KEN! for a pleasant stress free transaction, the paint and chrome on the car is very nice so i opted for the vaseline coat on the car.
hope this helps anyone calculate costs on shipping a car.
cheers chris
