Anyone used CJPonyParts?

[TorqueVR]

Ordered parts on Monday evening and they arrived at breakfast time today (Friday). Top-notch service.

Used them a couple of times. Brilliant service, postage can be a bit eye watering.

Yep, use them all the time.
It's a fine balance between aving up for a fair few items to make postage cheaper, and overdoing this and getting hit with import taxes

Just make sure you order the correct part. If you get it wrong they are less than helpful.
Took me the best part of 2 months to return an item and get the replacement correct part.
Most of that time was waiting for them to respond to me!

They are absolutely no good for returns, but always seem to dispatch quickly.

I presume for that speed of delivery you must have specced the super quick DHL or UPS service?

I often stick to USPS and the average delivery time is 3-4 weeks for any item.

also less likely to get collared with additional taxes!

I was wondering about the import tax and VAT, read up about it on the Gov.uk web site and it said import at 2.5% and VAT on everything including cost, postage, insurance and duty.

Is that what everyone else has found?

If that's the case, buying a Roush Axle Back exhaust from CJP would be cheaper than buying in the UK.

Import duty on car parts is usually 10%.

GT101 have the Roush axle back in stock at £679.95 inc VAT which I think works out very slightly cheaper. (plus I'm sure you'd feel better about supporting a UK business....)
