My one and only attempt to use these "people" cost me $1500, 2 yrs of frustration attempting to sort out the whole sh*tte fight, even put a claim into PayPal, but they said they didn't cover that sort of thing, Shipitto then refused to accept any other form of money transfer other than Western Union, I'm sure we have all seen the warnings about sending money via Western Union, so I wasn't falling for sending them even more money ..... they would not refund me a cent and I simply gave up ...... All I was trying to do was to get them to buy 3 Black and Decker battery products from a department store over there. I should have seen the warning signs when a number of stores I contacted refused to ship anything to that address, even if I left the "shipitto" out of the address box, so they are known over there it appears.
I then did a Google search So now I Google search anyone overseas that wants me to send them money for something ...... at least 90% are scams .....

EDIT: Here is just one review site https://www.productreview.com.au/listings/shipito

That is starnge, I have not used them for years but did so extensively at one stage and never had an issue. Never got them to buy stuff though, I did that myself and basically used them as a freight forwarder.

I thought I was going to need to enter a mortgage agreement to afford the coolant, all 30 ltrs Found an Evil bay seller with Penrite concentrate that made 10 ltrs, bought 3 bottles .... then realised I had to buy a heap of distilled water to go with it .... so I bought on of these https://www.vevor.com.au/alcohol-distil ... 0199882322 it says it does water

The throttle body is 140mm x 90mm flat oval shape with 2 x 85mm throttle plates, the rubber hose thingy tapers down to 90mm diam to the adaptor for the LPG mixer, an Impco 425.
If I had my welding gear, I might have been able to fabricate an adaptor to make the oval into a large round opening while tapering it down to the 90mm, that might be the way it will have to go if I can't get this thing out of the states within a reasonable time.

Got me (no idea what the major prizes were) this time it let me go through with the order, yet to see if it's the correct part, but the part numbers line up, a fraction of the prices for any of the others .....

$38

https://www.ebay.com/itm/276703998630?

Although the images may be wrong.

This was the one I bought, the part number (all but the last letter) is the same, from a seller that also has the same item for US$113 .... Even though the part number matches, the image in the other phots doesn't so ...... We will see eh That US$38 turns into AU$145, the others are up around the $250 to $300 mark but the time they do the $$ exchange and add GST

S8mple. If you paid using PayPal, you'll get your money back.....

Goes like this...

I ordered this part number in the written description. They sent the wrong part number.

Yeah, but it's early Dec before it will get here, then send it back and get a refund, then order the correct one at twice the price and wait till late Jan for it arrive ....
Life's a gamble I guess
