Post the full description and part number of the item you want, pay shipping and I'll buy it and ship it to you.

Not that I agree with the policy, but I can understand the reason for it to a degree.
When you ship overseas, which I have done for members on here, they require more paperwork to be filled out, to me that is a PITA and takes extra time. If they are selling parts at a very low margin, they probably do not feel they will make any profit on less than a 300 order.
It's just business and they deserve to make a fair profit. They are trying to provide product at the lowest price possible apparently, your choice to do business with them based on their policies.
If you don't like their policy, buy from someone who will ship, they may charge more for the item, but will be less in the long run and you will have your part.

Huh??? You'll buy him the part and all you want is shipping??? That's a generous offer! I'll take you up on that next time I need a part. In fact, I need another whole Harley. Will you buy it for me if I pay the shipping on it?
