    Turn them into furniture and put them in your house.

        I was considering doing that with my Golf Recaros - they'd make great seats for playing Gran Turismo

        If the back is removed from the base, they can be stacked flat, and shipped in a more traditional box.

        If this is something you would consider, I am all over these.

        Thanks!
        Well I just mean it was difficult to get an international shipping quote for something so bulky and heavy. If anyone can recommend where to get a quote of this type, let me know

          I've done it with an RS2 one, not rigged up gran turismo yet though.

            Jack, sell the seats the our foreign friends.Whatever it takes packing wise, it's worth it for £750. About 80% of what i sell on ebay goes abroad because UK ebayers have no money.

              Currently got a queue of 3 people, just waiting to see how each one pans out in order. I am by no means not wanting to consider a sale overseas, it's just difficult to find somewhere to get a shipping quote having not done it before - and a lot of effort until an overseas buyer is at the head of the queue

                Am I at the head of the queue?

                I understand either way, but will take them if you can figure it out.

                www.Parcel2Go.com is a good one, that I have used to buy things off this forum before.

                  I'm in the U.S. and some seats like this are something in which I would be interested, someday.

                      You are second. I tried parcel2go for the guy from Finland who wanted them but I couldn't get a quote at all! It said either they are too large or too heavy If an overseas buyer is at the head of the queue then I'll have to find time to investigate just how compact a package I can get it all into and the exact weight.

                        I'll keep that in mind I'm sure I can steal a pallet from work

                                I've used them a few times for alloys, are they any good for international shipping? I think they need a postal code for even just a quote
