kieren1234 Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 this seems strange, i know what everyones opinions are on xs-power parts, some have used them with great results and happy with them, some have used them and been extremely dissappointed, some have not used them but slate them because others do etc etc etc etc. Here is what i dont understand, in the UK this exhaust system is £299: http://www.xs-power.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=25&products_id=211 But here on the US website it is only £104.36 delivered to the UK: http://www.xs-power.com/toyota/toyo006.html Do you think the price on the US website is wrong as that is really cheap especially seeing as though its including delivery.

kieren1234 Posted October 24, 2007 Author Share Posted October 24, 2007 one is on order from the US so doubt it is a misake tbh ;) Its madness that it is a third of the price!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonB Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 The US price won't include import duty & VAT, whereas the UK one will have to. That accounts for some of the difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kieren1234 Posted October 25, 2007 Author Share Posted October 25, 2007 Well i made the payment through xs-power website (US) and even tried calculating payment and it said this was included in the $208. But got a text from my brother last night saying they have already refunded the payment so looks like i wont be getting it at this price, surely that is illegal to advertise it at that price and then say that its not. This is assuming what they will say. Will e-mail them and see what happens!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kieren1234 Posted October 25, 2007 Author Share Posted October 25, 2007 look at the link now, its suprisingly gone up to $450!!!!!!!!!! http://www.xs-power.com/toyota/toyo006.html Surely thats illegal because i made the purchase when it was advertised as $208.......??
