[TR] [Fot] Buying Parts From England?

Sat Jan 17 13:49:51 MST 2026

My cousin, Darryl, owns Racetorations.  It was he who told me the shipper (UPS) was applying what he felt were arbitrary charges.  Darryl says he has since switched to DHL and they are being more reasonable.

Don, I recently bought a couple of head gaskets from Racetorations (in England). The total from them was under $300 as I recall. I got a bill for $140 in tariffs from the shipping vendor which I had to pay prior to delivery. I don't remember

Don, I recently bought a couple of head gaskets from Racetorations (in

England).  The total from them was under $300 as I recall.  I got a bill

for $140 in tariffs from the shipping vendor which I had to pay prior to

delivery.  I don't remember exact shipping but that part didn't feel out

of line.  The tariffs payment sucked.

Regards, Tony
