    Hi all i order a new seat for my Harley. Didnt have it Australia. So i had to pay a Harley Dealer in Sydney for them to send it out from USA. Told me 2 weeks after i paid $800 for it. That was 7 weeks ago, still havent got it. Anyone eles having same problem?
    Regards

    Hey mate,
    I ordered a down tube toolbag from local Harley dealer.
    That took 6 weeks to arrive but he told me upfront.
    PS pretty poor quality item for a Harley accessory.
    Also bought some V&H baffles from Amazon US a little while back they took around 3 weeks to come in.

    sometimes its better to order yourself .. dealers often skimp on shipping costs etc.. ive ordered plenty from the states over the years and if it dont come by fedex  u could be waiting forever .. i recently purchased a $250 helmet from states .. cost $10 for shipping by fedex and was here in bout 5 days.
    mind u that was before the lurgy !!

    Bought a visor for my helmet from Germany on ebay in March.
    By June it had not turned up, so disputed the deal through ebay/paypal and got a refund.
    Yesterday it turned up at the post office.

    I was thinking the virus might slow things up, getting from USA or other countries?

    Does that mean you got a freeby?

    Would do if I said nothing.
    I'm not out to rip anyone off though.
    Emailed the seller to say I'd finally got the item and how do I repay them?.
    If they reply I will refund the refund.
