Well I got the dodgiest email ever in reply...
HEY
I can do $50 ship fee for 5 or more
( $250 ship fee for 5 )
If u pay in HARD AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS, that we use for our schools, for show and tell , I can do (5) for $500 shipped.
But that would be , hard cash australian currency.
I can send you an invoice, and you can send it registered... legit.
Thanks!

That does sound pretty suss....
could he not just go and get the money exchanged into Aus currency if he was that keen on it?
i'm still in though... but the whole 'registered post' thing is definitely not the way to do it.
I reckon just ask him how much for a paypal transaction for 5-10 pipes delivered.
total price.

Same seller has GT35R turbos for US$389:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/GT35R-GT35-Ball-Bearing-Turbo-Anti-Surge-T3-/330477503311?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4cf1fe834f
Other eBay sellers generally sell these around $1200 - $1400 ... what's the catch?? Feedback seems OK too.
... and T3/T4 hybrids for US$139:

I'd be happy to take on the GB except for the fact that I'm in Darwin.
The way I see it, if we ask him for a price through paypal, we get a bit of a safety net.
If he disagrees, then there's something up. Even if it's another 40-50 dollars total, it's worth it for the ease of transfer.
