PSPA Australia. Flintstones skittles.

[Alan Syson]

Anyone dealt with them before?
Reason I ask is I've only just realised I'm missing the dangly skittles for the bowling area target. I can get the metal tabs and skittle targets decals from Germany but I also need the hanging bracket, 01-12371, and retaining plate. These seem to be a bit rocking horse poo but PSPA have these two pieces.
Problem is they seem to have a minimum order for overseas, when I come to pay it's about £5k!
Am I missing something obvious? Surely people have ordered from here before without paying this.
I know these are purely cosmetic but once I know something isn't right it makes my teeth itch.
Cheers, Alan.

You might want to remove the picture Alan as it has your info on it.

Had a look on the site and there is a note on the postage quote due to UK VAT rules they want a minimum order of 250AUD so its over the £135 limit where they dont have to deal with collecting VAT and leave it to the courier.

Looks like they have it set to add the crazy postage cost to stop people placing smaller orders.

Create a cart with a order amount over 250 AUD and then the normal postage charges come up.

Don’t pay via the PayPal link. Pay via bank transfer and Jason will email you the invoice which you can then pay via PayPal.
A bit of a faff but helpful chaps.

You can order any amount doing what I’ve said above. No minimum.

Or get a revolut card which you can then use via paypal and get paypal to charge in original currency then you get the best exchange rate as Paypals is normally rubbish.

I have bought regularly from pspa and they are sound but you do need to be over the minimum order level of AUD250. In the past I have combined with others to get over the Minimum order amount or even added a few bits to my order for others when I have been over the limit already.

Post on here to see if anybody is putting in a big order any time soon to piggy back on.

Remember to factor in another aud60 minimum for postage plus 20% vat plus £12 parcel force customs admin fees. It only really makes sense to do a big order.


Last order I did was for aus$426 of parts (net of any australian tax shown on the website) plus aus$157 postage to make aus$583 total which was £308 plus £66 UK VAT and parcel force fees to make £375 total. About £100 of that was for somebody else on the group.

I’ve tried this option.
Hitting the confirm button for an order of £5k was done with a slightly trembling finger…

ive always been quoted $9000 odd dollars.
I then go to checkout (not PayPal checkout) then you are given two options.
Bank transfer or PayPal.
Choose bank transfer and then continue.
It then advises you to wait until either Craig or Jason contacts you with a PayPal money request after they have calculated the shipping.
Done this maybe 4 or 5 times for MM parts.
