Can order direct from Corbin. They even accept international customers on their website though it's single-language (Californian still bears a vague resemblance to English so you can probably decipher it.) :-D

...yes, but i got a quote to send beetle bags and solo seat with backrest to australia- $800USD just for postage!

That can't be right.... for that much I'll jump on a Quantis flight and bring them to you :-D

I've shipped a few small items to Oz and it was only about $20 US. I can't imagine that three boxes that size would cost any more than $100 :???: :???:

Prices must have gone up???

Hey Tomo, I don't want to appear pedantic but Quantis is actually spelt "Qantas". In fact it is the only word in the English language where the letter U does not automatically follow the letter Q! That is, if you can accept that the name "Qantas" has worked it's way into the language as a legitimate word.

BTW it stands for "Queensland and Northern Territory Air Services" and was the original outback Australian airline foundered in the western Queensland town of Longreach.
The Qantas Founders Museum is situated out there and is a great place to visit if you are passing through the outback.

Just thought you'd all be interested! Davo

I stand corrected... :-D

Thats what is so great about this forum... I learn new stuff all the time.. I had no idea that Qantas was an acronym for something!

Now.. tell me what Aksarben is....

Not to change the subject... but it doesn't cost anything like like the $800 to ship the Mad Dogs to the US... it just can't. I still think something is a little goofy there :hammer:
