Right currently as follows:

mini13 (Joe) - Paid (i assume JR clarke?)
8portchris - Paid
Fab - en-route via bank transfer
clubman_dan - Paid
Rob - Paid
Stewart - Paid

All cheques went in the bank yesterday so should be clear by the end of the week. looking to order friday, monday at the latest *smiley*

Unfortunately i have had to bin the idea of a Quaife short term due to a pending house purchase! The idea of a double garage is more appealing at the minute than a Quaife! But i'm still happy progressing the buy for everyone.

TD and Brocky, i'll have a word with swifty's and get back to you on the price of 2 posted to one US address when i make the order. I'm sure they include the same discount, just need to check on VAT and postage.

Yep thats me although no e on clark, not that it stops anyone lol.

Damn shame your dropping out! hope it works out so you can get a deal when you get yours, perhaps swiftune would give you a discount when you do get yours as you've already put a load of busines their way?

I was talking to someone with someone who is a seller for Quaife US. He said that Quaife UK will probably refuse to sell minus VAT to a US address because it violates their distribution agreement.

Right! I didn't talk directly to someone at Quaife. I talked to someone who owns a local Mini repair shop, who also happens to sell the Quaife diff.

I'm also curious about whether we could get in on the deal minus VAT....If we can, I may put my hat in the ring.

Well i'll ask tomorrow *smiley*

The thing with this diff is that Swiftune have the rights to all sales, so its not possible to buy through Quaife. Might make the export thing easier.

...in the UK. In the US, Autotech has the rights to all sales. Anyway, I hope you can get em cheaper through swiftune! That would rock!

Right,

I have rung swiftune and all are confirmed in stock, i'm going to order them this afternoon *smiley*

Regards the US ones, they say it shouldnt be a problem at all to send some with FEDEX ex VAT to one US address.

Lance, i suggest you have a word with TD to see if he minds sending yours out *smiley*

Unfortunately at the minute the the UK/europe run is closed as i need to order these today as everyone has paid out. I will however go for another run, and i'm sure that now i've order a boat load, there is the possibilty to ship direct to one source over there bosroamer. I dont think i will need to get another 5 together. I will ask the question this afternoon when i call them back to place the first order.
