I bought a couple used TZR parts off eBay from a breaker in Japan March 13 and received yesterday March 23 in Colorado. Incredibly fast 10 days total! Everything was handled by Fedex from drop off point in Narita to me in CO. Cleared "import" and "released" in Memphis to continue delivery as I tracked it.

The seller had a prominent note on auction saying all taxes and import fees were already included in the total auction price and there would be no further charges due upon receipt? I was skeptical that could be true since it didn't say "tariff" anywhere. So received box from FedEX guy and no invoice from him. Asked if he knows if I'll receive notification of tariff charges later and he never heard of it happening.

I think I remember some of you guys getting notified like 2 weeks after the fact? So kinda expecting the other shoe to drop 1 day before any celebrating  :whistle:

:dawg: yeah, just usually expect to get hosed somehow ...

here's what I bought. add shipping + CO tax, CO retail delivery fee and total was $206. Condition was better than expected and the packing was perfect- could have been run over by a truck and parts would have survived.
