    Default Finding a reliable online supplier of spare parts.

    Hi all, Can anybody recommend a good/reliable online supplier of spare parts that will ship to Australia. I have been trying to get Elu and DeWalt spares for older routers but had no success in Australia. Most of the sites I've accessed will only ship within their country borders. Thanks Grant

    Many US businesses are not interested in shipping OS these days. If you can do the leg work and locate the bits you need in the US, provide details of supplier, part nos price weight etc to PRICE USA and they will purchase and have shipped to their agent in US who will onship to you. Costs about $10 per order plus a couple of percent on credit card exchange rates beyond the actual cost of goods and shipping.

    Default In answer to myself but for general knowledge

    Hi, Thanks for the info. I contacted a number of US companies and received this one from www.toolpartsdirect.com that seems worth following up. Their prices also seemed OK

    Sir,
    Unfortunately, we don't currently ship directly outside of the United States of America. You would need to set up and account with our affiliate BongoUS and their site is     http://bongous.com to have an order ship internationally. Thank you.

    I've dealt with these guys for a few router parts and found them fine:

    Default Successful delivery of parts from climes foreign

    I've just received a delivery of my parts from toolshopdirect.co.uk. They stocked everything I needed for my Elu MOF96 and 177 and the service was excellent. Thanks to those who replied with names of the other companies. I will investigate their prices as well next time I need stuff.
    Cheers Grant
    PS I have no connection to Tool Shop Direct other than being a satisfied customer.
