i used the estimator but i actually over estimated the weight so the adjusted it for me and refunded the difference to my account.
i thought it was reasonable. considering they go into the effort of arranging pick-up/sending to their warehouse. then packing it and sending it to your door. and the convenience of having an aussie bunch of lads in the thick of Japanese parts. and there's so many part available for our cars!!
