Hello Phil,
Thank you for the heads up. I dropped the ball here. International
(most) orders now have the option of shipping via Post for only $4
USD.
The ACT LABS 4-speed Shifter Plate for the ACT LABS RS Shifter was
originally intended to be a special purchase. Since demand has been
so positive, however, we may keep it as a permanent addition to our
Racing Systems. We made the plate more for our customers than for
profit which is why it sells for only $5.99 and includes shipping and
handling in North America.
I have added the option to ship internationally via post now too, but
need to somehow offset the added cost of shipping. I hope you find the
$4 USD shipping much more agreeable than the $24 courrier charge. (I
agree that $24 is WAY too much.)
Again, I take full blame for forgetting to find a way to include our
iternational customers. I really do hope that you find this to be a
fair option.
Thank you for the constructive criticism. If anyone ever has ANY
issues, please give me a ring at 1-800-980-9997, ext 122.
