Freight is a bummer though. I bid on a 500K1 seat and the guy wanted $96 to ship it!

I've never once paid over the odds for postage, I found it not much more than Royal Mail for the same weight parcel sent to me in the UK ...that price for a seat sounds high  :o

That price Bob W could have sent the seat for you sounds about right, I had barrels and pistons (heavy) delivered from IL by 48 hr air mail for $85, those parts cost $18.50 the guy selling them thought I was mad paying all that postage. I could never have got those parts here in that UK in 6k miles condition, they arrived for only 50 quid! I love US ebargain. 8)
