I have email chester because iam well up for a kit to.
He said there is no problem sending it.
I also thought i mite pay extra for postal insurance if he is ok with that. Just incace it gets damage, I can then go mad at the postal service. and get them to buy a new one..

But iam not saying that it wouldnt be a grate road trip.

Just my though dude

It seems I might have an extra kit here now (in sweden) as the Norwegian guy that asked me to collect (and pay for) his kit for him, was supposed to come down at the weekend collect and pay for it.
So far all I have heard from him is: "have you got the kit, what is the quality like?" Which I take to mean, "if it is shite then I don't want it". I told him to read my blog, see the pictures and decide for himself what the quality is like. He has not been in touch since......
How long do you reckon I should hold his kit before I sell it on....??? I'll be coming to the uk in July so anyone who wants it can have it for purchase price plus half what it cost to collect it. (kit and collection 500 euro) postage within the uk will be at the buyers expense, or come to Corsham in Wiltshire to collect it anytime in July, I should be in Wiltshire for a month.



The kit I have is just as good quality as the one we fitted to my car last weekend, it's in the paintshop now, but even the bodywork guy is impressed by the quality of chesters GP kit.

I wouldn't bother with the hassle and expense of going down to poland to collect 2 kits again, next time I'll get them sent in the post if I need any replacement panels.
So if you are a group who can all trust each other, then I suppose it would be a fun trip to go and collect them, I should imagine that the costs from the UK would make it worthwhile to collect 4 or more kits,ยด3 kits would probably hit break-even point. If you are only getting 2 kits it will cost you more than postage.
Just make sure you collect the money from all involved, BEFORE you start the trip, money for the kits and for the trip costs. Otherwise somebody will bail out and you'll be left paying more for the trip and have an extra kit left over....

My 2c..

Conkers.

Sorry for that but i dont want ot put more money in to this then i alerady did. The firs cost was only the shiping. Then i foud out i have to make boxes for the fenders and protection stuff so it would not get damadged during transport. this stuff also weights some so i had to increese shiping costs.

Sory for that.

The best option is to come here and pick it up. U see what u get. And u dont get scamed on the shiping costs(im not sayng that im doing that).

thats cool, i understand that you have to factor in packaging and weights for this, just that my budget unfortunately doesn't

I didn't directly accuse Chester of scamming, i was simply airing my personal experiences.

It wasnt directed at anyone in particular, just an observation ive made during this whole thread about the kits.
