Ordering Parts from US - Bundlebox?
Discussion
Hello, I'm working on a mini project, modifying my Cherokee XJ for more serious offroad usage, and in particular looking at ordering parts from the US. It's a sad fact of life that none of the potential UK distributors have responded to my inquiries, where as their equivalents in the US are only too happy to help. So therefore unless the Jeep-mod-fairy waves a wand and I can get what I want in the UK, somewhat suspect that I'll be shipping about $2000-worth of parts at approximately 100kgs in weight. So far, quotes for shipping costs are a bit scary - coming in at approximately $1000 to the UK.
Saw on another website a recommendation for Bundlebox, who appear to be able to receive shipments in the US and then forward them onto the UK at cheaper rates than direct from the supplier. Has anyone used Bundlebox, and what was the experience like? I'm slightly hesitant for the big order, so may do a couple of smaller orders to see how they work out.

Registered on the site earlier, and certainly it seems to save a couple of hundred dollars in shipping charges. Shipping within the US to the address in Kentucky comes to $100 and then $400ish from there to the UK.
Would be interesting to find out how much shipping a container would be...

Regular containers and you can get stuff delivered to his US facility as many don't like shipping to the UK.
