Do they still have that free european delivery thing going on?
And they have to cover the fluctuating yen aswell. They cant update the site 24/7. you would prob get a better price if you ring them

I should imagine the VTEC direct prices are more up to date considering the £/Yen exchange rate at the moment.....

Also worth considering that a lot of other sites dont include international shipping in their quotes whereas Vtec Direct do i believe....

If you do think you can get a better deal elsewhere, then you could always ring & see if they can price match too

i was under the impression that they were matching prices to the fluctuating Yen

Yen is killing us

Definately worth ringing Andy @ Vtec Direct as I know he will do his best to give you the best up to date price, and he's a friendly guy to speak to aswell

It must be the Yen strength, I think I saw on a thread that the before and after the recession price of J's Intake was almost £100 in difference and that's a relativley low price item to begin with!

vtecdirect is more up to date with changing prices to reflect current exchange rate, some sites may still be behind so it appears they have lower prices but in reality you may get a nice email after checkout saying there has been an error and you owe more money etc...

Hi Guys, Yes as most people have stated our prices are probably the most up to date on the net. Our yen exchange is altered monthly whereas a lot of other sites will simply take your money and e mail later to say price has changed etc.
The price you see on www.vtecdirect.com is the price you pay. No add ons at checkout for vat or shipping. Price includes shipping pretty much everywhere.

Apologies for not being around much but been crazy busy trying to get things better on the site.
New Freephone number now added to site, and new credit card online payment system now fully operational,

Am always available to talk to by email or phone.
Best regards
Andy
