When I was in the market for a new voltage regulator for my 2200A I called Jabiru
USA and was quoted a very high price for it from them. BUT the gal I spoke
to there (can't remember the name) acknowledged their price was rather high and
then suggested I call someone else (can't remember the name there either) and
she gave me the Kubota part number.
Bottom line is that, as an importer, they have very little control of the pricing
of their parts. But their willingness to recommend other sources and provide
the actual manufacturer's part number is good customer service.
I can tell you from personal experience, none of the Rotax distributors will do
that. In fact they do a fear and smear campaign to keep you from buying standard
parts like oil filters from sources other than Rotax. Rotax oil filter is
about $22 now and yet there are a plethora of auto filters that do a great job
at $5-$8.

Maybe you should have asked for a price before shipping. Or ordered the 50$
min from the other company. Some one has to buy them in bulk ,and if you a
re not willing to than you must pay for the conveniance of it.

I have never found working with JABUSA to be a problem and prices fair cons
idereing most the stuff is specialty items you would have paid double for s
ome where else anyways.

!!
I recently needed more of the tiny 3/32 csnk pop rivets supplied by Jab USA
in the 601 FWF kit.- The only place I could locate these on the internet
was an outfit that had a $50.00 min. order.- Not needing more than a few
more rivets I called- Shelbyville and asked if they send about 50.- Th
e girl said "no problem"...- I asked if I could give her a credit card.
"No, she said"- - I'm thinking, as I hung up, "boy, that was nice of th
em"
Bullshit!- they still had my credit card from 2 years ago, and sent me a
receipt yesterday for $43 for those 50 pop rivets and shipping.
So be careful, $ 4.00 worth of rivets cost me $43 through Jabiru USA.
Hard lesson...!!!!!!
