HAHA!

i filled it out with $4250.00 as the low price (lowest you can go) and for that amount paid, the car itself is only worth $88.08!

sry i just find it amusing that you can actually buy a car for 88 bux and be able to sell if for 50x that amount

you guys have a nice business going…good prices. keep it up!

you’re looking at it entirely wrong. There are flat rate costs that will apply no matter what. The processing, and shipping is the same regardless of the cost of the car, that means the work JI has to put into getting your 80$ car here is the same as getting your 8000$ car.

Notice they dont charge an extra % based commission which would be realistically ripping you off since as I just stated an 8000$ car is the same amount of work to bring over as an 80$ car.

So basically the price of the car + tax + 4000$ in getting it over here.

not oh i bought an 80$ car and they made 4000$ definatly NOT.

just a quick thought, Why dont you when it puts the prices, have a link to the cars that are available in that price range, make it quick and easy for the customers.

Soooooo… what is it for?  
From what people are saying it`s JUST the cost of importing a car.

it looks like could used be for numerous things…

Why not put what this tool is used for? I guess the links on your website would explain that before going to that link… nice, but a lil confussing.
