I know everyone looks heavily at is the money conversion rate (exchange rate) when purchasing internationally and obviously this is something out of our hands! Other than the exchange rate, I have a few good reasons that I will go into detail about on why you SHOULD buy from us:
Powerhouse has some of the lowest Shipping Rates worldwide, and we forward our savings to you, the customer, to retain a high international shipping volume every day from a small box to a pallet. These shipping rates we will give you multiple options from the cheapest to most expensive (with tracking #'s) and get your package to your door within 1-15 days depending on the option chosen. We offer FedEx (our quickest and often cheapest service), US Postal Service (USPS), and a freight company for a larger orders/boxes like a hood, body kit, or motor.
A little deeper into shipping: We have set up a VERY unique relationship with FedEx Express which ties in with international shipments that allow us to ship items for as little as $30 depending on where your location is. $30 on a small package is cheaper than you can get anywhere in your country especially after you factor the local shop to you marks the part up 17-30% to make up for the loss of importing it in from the states + MORE TAXES!
"Duties and Taxes" which are probably the most important reason for spending money in the USA when almost all shipments crossing international borders are subject to the assessment of duties and taxes imposed by the importing country's government.
A shipment's duty and tax amount may be based on:
Product value - We are customs "FRIENDLY"
Trade agreements
Country of manufacture USA and Japan for virtually all our parts
Use of the product - "New Car Parts"
The product's Harmonized System (HS) code - Normally never ship fluids which is a higher one than most product you would purchase from us.
A VAT is a general consumption tax assessed on the value added to goods and services. In some countries, including Singapore, Australia, New Zealand and Canada, this tax is known as goods and services tax or GST. Because this is a tax on consumer expenditure, businesses that are VAT-registered and fully taxable do not bear the final costs of VAT. Every member state of the European Union (EU) has a VAT.
A VAT is typically assessed on the "duty paid value" of the goods (which equals the cost of the goods, insurance and freight (CIF) plus duty), which in our case we always take off the shipping and insurance on the invoice so that is another thing we save you!

If buying from a shop in your country, you pay for these taxes no matter what, even if you do not see them directly added to the cost. Why not pay the taxes on a smaller amount from us with CHEAPER shipping rates than even buying from the local shop?
For the final reason, and to sum it all up, we have a 10,000 sq ft (1,000+ sq. meters) warehouse that carries thousands of different parts from the small to the large. NOT JUST SUPRA / SKYLINE specific but many very well known name brands like, ARP, Carrillo, ATI, Mishimoto, Koyo, Fluidyne, HKS, Greddy, AEM and many more. Chances are we will have it in stock or is only out 1-2 days, excluding some rare special orders. With the cheapest / most competitive prices (and we DO PRICE MATCH) what more could you ask for? Of course! Fast and Friendly Service, guaranteed always to be fast and knowledgeable. We go out of our way to serve YOU and YOU only! We do our best to get to all emails same day, but there are times when we can be overwhelmed and takes a little more time. If there is a better reason to go somewhere else I want to hear it!
