Right, so the minimum order is five, so at the maximum price $75 plus shipping, or if enough for five cars, $150 for ten......I've sent an email to Jessica Zhang for more details :eek:
Oh and priced in GBP here.......LINK I wonder how many you need to buy to get them for 79 pence each then :shrug: |
Just asked for a price on 1,000 pears? Also asked for a sample of the cabrio type?

Looked at the trading company website, :eek:
https://www.cinaautoparts.com/europe...uto-parts-html |
I done a wide China wholesale search for parts for our cars some time ago, gave up looking, the replies would just come back with an unavailability, seems many listings lay dormant. :shrug:
I hope this is not the case for these, I may have even tried them already though. If you go direct to their own websites, you can usually find more info. |
So therefore all if not most of the parts we are finding or being offered for our cars may well be coming from this source ? I think I will stick to the Unipart items I tend to find now and again, wouldn't it have been great if they made the arms.

I see that they fit the "Stufenhech" model too! :D
|
I thought the interpretation of stufenhech was a heck of a stiff neck.
I have great admiration for the ingenuity and opportunistic nature of our Chinese cousins. They are somewhat behind our industrial revolution of c.19th Century but have obviously studied it at length. Maybe there is a possibility of a growth industry in translation/interpretation techniques but our proficiency in their language does need massive improvement. They impress with their enthusiasm. |

No doubt some of our words will be amusing to those in other countries but their grasp of English on the whole I suspect will be greater than that of their language by the majority of those in the UK. The words Chery, Geely, Dongfeng and Great Wall when Googled appear to be Chinese motor manufacturers - SAIC being but one other. China has more motor manufacturers than we could shake a stick at, the old adage that "he who laughs last" comes to mind. The best quality rear upper suspension arms of late and notwithstanding the original Rover oem's have come from China. I will hold judgement and be thankful if something good can come of this.

Pretty sure these don’t exist - was having a fairly good chat with them when they stopped responding. :D
I only wanted some samples, too! |
The big mystery for me in how the word "Stufenhech" got past the forum swear filter..:D:eek::eek:
|
As a nation we are too idle to learn another language because most people in other countries speak English. Say’s something about us does it not.
|
I've just got back from Greece, where most folks speak English. I was amused to see the German tourists having to order in English as the Greeks said that they couldn't understand German! I think that there may have been a bit of historical repayment going on (which became hysterical for the English onlookers, particularly the wink and smile from the Greek waiter as he left the table). Naughty but gave me a smile!:getmecoat:

The Dongfeng A9 looks pretty impressive. :eek:

You think that's bad, I did German as well and the only phrase that stuck in my mind (God knows why) is: "Das spiegelei ist in der pfanne" . . . . the fried egg is in the pan. You struggle to get that into an everyday conversation.

RGG104962/RGG104972 cost in china only original parts USD150 one set, 25 set cost USD3750(EXW cost), freight by sea from china to UK need USD300(don't including import duty), so total cost USD4050, if you agree,you can pay us by western union. So who wants in? Its cheap, but not that cheap. £115.99GBP one set (2x piece). £2,899.71GBP 25x sets (50x piece). £231.98GBP shipping by sea (not including import duty). |
Does the shipping cost include insurance Wes? If so then we could be looking at ~ £168.55 a pair delivered to the door in the UK if say £13 is allowed for UK postage. There might be a little difference here or there depending on which online currency converter and import duty calculator is used and indeed when they are used as currency values fluctuate. But I think it is going to be there or there about. Then again my figures could be out so perhaps someone could check them too.
:smilie_re: The UK shipping cost of £13 is also a guesstimate which may or may not be enough. :getmecoat: |
Quote:
We are looking at a landing price of roughly £3,900 for 25x sets. I hate paying the asking price for anything, so I'm sure we can haggle a bit more on that... :D £150/£160 seems about right for one pair. |
Quote:
Surely the cost from DMGRS is too similar to make this a worthwhile consideration, providing those come as they did 4 or 5 years ago? Especially when you take in warranty issues (not there is much to go wrong lol). Or are you looking into this for a mathematical exercise? I do wish I had bought a pair when I got my subframe. If I recall, they were $25 each then - I was bringing other things in, so there wouldnt have been a lot, more. I did get a few bits and pieces though. |

Shipping is £231.98 by sea, not including duty or tax, these fee's should calculate at roughly £765 if I have my sums correct. This gives us a £3,900 landing price once fees are paid. £155 per pair buying price once in the UK, but I'm sure we can get that price down a bit further by using some hard, but friendly business tactics, as there is certainly no profit to be made. If these arms have the cup in the correct place, then it may well be worth a punt. It may also be a good idea to place a sample order first for one pair, make sure the quality is what we want. Shipping will be expensive for one set as it will need to be sent the Express method, its food for thought. :} |
One of the pictures has DMGRS business card on it unless I am mistaken

Why not buy them from Dmgrs. Special offer on at the moment. Simples. And 5 years warranty not 1 year.

As I understand it, Matt can no longer get hold of the correct positioned cup arms, hence this post. After chatting to Mr Chang this morning, and in light of what we have learned this evening regarding the photos, its safe to say these arms on Alibaba will have the same incorrect positioned cup placement, same as what is available everywhere else. :getmecoat: |

My interest was to try to give some redundancy to the supply chain. Matt has only recently come back on stream with what I expect will be plug-and-play arms of the quality that he has previously supplied from China. Indeed I have recently ordered a pair from him myself on the back of the assurance that he has posted of to that effect on his own thread which is running concurrent with this one atm.
The pics mentioned on this thread I suspect might well be Matt's which the Chinese seller has found on the net and used out of convenience in a generic fashion. Generic pics may or may not be exact replicas of what you might expect to receive and given the problems with the Indian arms it would be wise to seek confirmation from the seller of what is being sold re the quality that we require. |
Why ??
If dmgrs is going to do them for 70 quids ? And give a 5 years warranty ? |
Quote:
I myself making contact with Taizhou Cina Auto Parts yesterday morning was to confirm if the arms were available, and to confirm that low price, but obviously the price I got quoted was different to what is advertised. :shrug: I would imagine if we could have got the arms for 25USD =(£19.42) we would all be jumping for joy by now, but as it stands the cheapest price quoted is £60.19 per arm. Not really worth the leg work if Matt is selling them for £70, I didn't even know that was the case, I thought they were £120. |
Quote:
Your efforts are appreciated, do not doubt that, although due to the recent announcement from DMGRS it was somewhat confusing (which has now been explained by your ignorance of it). Incidentally, the incorrectly placed mounts, apparently are on the arms made in India, whereas the Chinese ones were correct. That is not to say though that they will be correct or wrong. I only have experience of the chinese made ones, which were as good as you could hope for. |
From what I can tell, the cups should be in the correct position on the arms we're having made up - please see our other thread for a couple of pictures (in the General Forum).
To my knowledge, they're exactly the same as the MGR original arms and are made using identical tooling. |
I am sure that after the assurances from Matt, that they will be the same as the ones he sold before(193), that if they are not as described, he will honour the usual guarantee of misdescribed items, and you will get your money back if you do not want them?
