Default I got an idea

dont know if it will work but i want to look into it anyway.

it seems that you guys have trouble getting replacement parts for the ZC's. because it was supplied in some hondas here in the uk id imagine we can get alot more standard replacement parts than you guys in the usa. combine that with the fact that parts seem more expensive in the usa (bear in mine £ > $) but anyway i was thinking whats to stop me setting up a small business selling ZC parts (or any other honda parts you cant readily get in the usa) and just shipping them overseas? from what i have seen of the prices of stuff over there i think it could work.

opinions?

dunno why it wouldnt work but....

1. if you are going to buy them cheaper and sell for a profit, shipping to the U.S. would make it around the same price as if we bought some of the parts already over here in some cases, which leads too....

2. If we pay the same to get them from you as we would from U.S. because of shipping charges, why not just get them from the U.S. so that if you need to return it, it doesnt take as long and it is cheaper shipping once again.

But on the plus side like you said yourself, you have easier access to a lot of the parts i guess. I would go for it if i were you just for that simple reason and try and get the shipping as cheap as possible but still good service. i would gladly pay a fellow HT member than some big name place.

just my opinion, but i vote YES
