    My brother runs an engineering manufacturing company and can make just about anything...I showed him the pics and he thinks it'd be easy BUT not quite as cheap as you think as he would only use high quality materials and there would be labour costs etc involved. It'd probably be more along the lines of $150 - $200 a unit depending on the size.

    If we get together a decent sized (no less than 10) order he'd definately consider it.

    Not so much as a squeek! must be different in the states?
    Keep hearing them go on about their great customer service and all.

    Sent a second hello/reminder email last night.

    Will email again in a couple of days if they continue to ignore me

    Aaron, we can ship to Australia although the postage will be high. We use UPS for shipping. If you let me know which products you are interested in I will get the shipping costs for you.

    I am attaching a price list for you, it has our current sale pricing. The list also shows our scratch and dent availability and the pricing for those items as well. All scratch and dent products only have cosmetic damage, and come with the standard 2 year weld warranty. The Jungle Jacks that are scratch and dent are not the newest model shown on the website.



    I can sell directly to you, and any of the other guys you know can contact me as well if they are interested.



    Thanks,

    THE COMPLETE CHOICE FOR YOUR ACCESSORY NEEDS!!


    So I have ordered a rack for my trimmer and a bracket for my blower
    and including postage comes to about $120 us. Aparently it is being posted today so will post pics when it arrives. Finally service, Olivia seems keen and professional.

    Talking Re: Trimmer racks

    I made an enquiriy with Jungle Jim's - here's part of their reply

    Shipping is what’s really going to get you. Shipping on 2 packages will run approx $270, and if its 3 it will be around $290. I won’t be able to get a definite shipping cost until I can go and actually box the items together. If you only choose 1 or 2 items the shipping cost may be around $100 or $150, it’s really all dependant on the size and weight of the items that you do get, and if they are able to be combined.

    I really appreciate the info on the possible distributor. After the response I have received from a customer’s post on the forum, I am interested in pursuing possible distribution. It seems there is a lot of interest in products like the ones we manufacture, and not much of a source in Australia.

    Thanks, and have a nice weekend


    How about it Dean - worth your while distributing their stuff to us?
