Looking for input on buying parts from Japanese vendors

[mello dude]

Looking to make a purchase on a Honda wheel listed in stock on the Japanese website.. Webike. (Unavailable in US)
Any feedback on this vendor good/bad/ugly and other Japanese vendors?

Thanks

I have heard only good, but no experience myself.

Dealt with them a couple of times now, can't complain, reliable, accurate, very well packed...
Only our customs are then all over the shipment... import VAT and processing fees... dunno about US customs though...

I order a complete overhaul kit for the front forks a month ago. No complaints.

Have ordered from them a couple of times. No complaints. Price was right and shipping speed was good.

Several purchases from them - really good experience.

I’d highly recommend Web!ke, have used them several times now, most parts are a fraction of the HOP price, but not always!
Examples are brake pads and windshield/screen for the ST1300 which are more expensive than buying locally… however another item (38306MCA000) is GBP40.70 here in UK but GBP3.38 on Web!ke!

I’d also use EMS as the delivery option; I find them cheaper and much faster than FedEx and so far have not been charged any VAT/handling fee in import to UK.
