Unfortunately with only 4 of us postage jumps up to about $90 AUD

So are you going ahead with the order or not?  There is always going to be a freight component.  
I decided to check with Toyota close to home to see if they could get the seals at a reasonable price.   LOL, not likely. They wanted more than double what I can get them for including freight.
 
 

Additional handy info for MR2 newbies:
 
If you want genuine Toyota parts, no matter where you buy stuff from you will first need the correct Toyota part number from somewhere like Toyodiy: https://www.toyodiy.com/parts/
or this mob: http://jp-carparts.com/to...e=211120&cartype=3
They have pics that helps, but I always crosscheck with Toyodiy to be sure the number is right for my model. I have found they have accurate listings especially for ADM cars.
 
Amayma is interesting;
Depending on what you want, with Amayama a lot of their Toyota stuff is delivery from Australia (see the example I have given below) so shipping is less.  You can also pay straight away, and you'll get it quicker, but read their payment and ordering conditions carefully because you have different options.

If what you need is shown as delivery from Japan or elsewhere you will have to put in an enquiry, and they will check and get back to you with a definite quote.
If you want to go ahead, you can then confirm and pay for the order.
 

Thanks Lumix.  I had done the exercise myself, also did Lithia.  Part themselves were cheaper with Lithia, but freight was more, so worked out about the same as twosrus.
 
The exch rate has moved a bit since this started.  just waiting to see if it's still going ahead.  If not, I'll order myself.

Shaz, I did the same thing recently. Had spreadsheet comparing all the part costs from different suppliers for my recent purchases.

The wait time is only bad if you are in a rush. Haha. I still always check the Toyota dealership first because Amayama is not always cheaper especially when adding postage.

MG_MR2 you are doing a great thing of thinking of others and trying to help out. Commendable.

Point is reiterated to ensure enthusiasts and you are aware of buying channels to gain their own pricing and what shipping costs are. The suppliers referred for some of the parts are questionable if that's the best channel/cheapest seller for the same part.

The thread is not being transparent (posting) on exact final costs (delivered to their door) and their saving. Personally I have been part of group buys many many years ago only to find out in the end the organiser is doing it to have there parts / shipping paid for by the group and purchased through a USA supplier that was more expensive than others; few people got burnt so to say.

MyUS shipments from USA in the last month, including insurance, standard shipping total weight at 7.4lbs at $58usd, 11.4lbs for express/overnight $131.06usd. eBay global shipping from USA 13lbs at $35usd. Amayama from UAE $59.07aud (box of a over a dozen bearings, syncros, seals).

Shaz, we might be able to talk offline and sort something out for a few items between us.
