What do you know about "Boats.net"? Are they reliable for online shopping. They give me hell with an overseas delivery - can't get started
Any info will be appreciated

I live in Europe, and the guys have the parts I need - air silencer plastic cover and air extension. They anounce wire transfer payment possibilities, but keep on asking for credit card information, which I find suspicious.

Re: Spares suppliers

reading their site, i would set up a PayPal account, as they accept that. it is one of the safest ways to pay. it looks like a legitimate site. i would try with a small order, a test purchase.

Please don't. I experienced all the prepayment trouble - they ask you for credit card information too early, and won't proceed withoutit.
I tryed the paypal account - it's not in their computer program, prices are too low, they seem fraud to me.
They can't even issue a proper quotation for a week.
It smells from the beginning. I am glad no one was dealt so far.

Re: Spares suppliers

Thanks to Admiral Ezeke
I found a spares shop in my home town.
I am making the list now and ordering next week.
They said thay had everything.
I am wretling with the flywheel now.
Hey you're the good guys over there.
