Has anyone used Nengun auctions yet? I've found a few decent deals, but I'm not sure if I'm comfortable with the process. If you've used them, please let me know how if you had any success.

I've ordered a few things from them (some big, and some small) and it all went off without a hitch...I wouldn't worry about their auction services...

I havent used them but I saw a few and was interested in using them. Would really appreciate some input from someone that has used them. Thanks

from what I saw, the auctions aren't run by Nengun...just hosted by them. I've ordered a lot from Nengun in the past.
I'm looking at this auction for an RB26 oil pump, but can't tell if the shipper ships internationally.

I just checked it out, and it seems fairly streamlined...Everything is laid out well and explained (and I like the fact that they mentioned sellers feedback)...

I like that too...did it show you shipping costs to the US (or Canuckland in your case)?

I bought some stuff from their auction set up - all went off without a hitch. Just recognize that they do estimate the shipping on the items, so you might have to pay more once it is actually shipped (I think I paid an extra $14 ontop of what it was originally estimated at)... worked awesome for me! couldn't be happier. Took a while for the items (maybe 4 weeks or so) but considering it was sent from Japan to Nengun and then from Nengun to Canada, totally understandable and no brokerage fees (F-you UPS) is awesome. I would 100% do it again and probably will.

I've browsed that site quite a few times and it seems well laid-out. I know they've been around awhile and I've yet to see a bad review. I know that they are the only ones, that I've seen, that carry the r34gtr/east bear seats, and when I'm ready to order them, I'll be going through them.

I'm at work so I didn't log in...I'm trying to stay away from the auctions as I'm getting married in the next two months and I don't need to spend anymore money...Yahoo auctions makes me weak in the knees...
I can check to see later if you wish...

That would be awesome, maybe I'm just not looking in the right place...

Hey man, so I've checked up on it for ya and *YES* it does give you the shipping cost (plus added auction price and insurance costs) of the item to you once you sign in and add it to your cart.
Now that I've seen the process, I've saved a few auctions myself...Damn and I said I didn't want to drop any cash HAHA...

thanks man, I was afraid to do that with a $1400 oil pump in case all the fees made it too pricey...I appreciate all the help!

This is correct except for larger items. I wanted that kouki 180sx passenger seat on there that is at $33.XX. It said about $120 for shipping via FedEx to Michigan after I added it to my cart, which I thought was reasonable for sure.
However, when I emailed them, they said it would be $300 for EMS and $400+ for FedEx. Glad I asked, haha.

The issue ive experienced and many others in Australia is that there turn around time is extremely long, and generally what they say they have on the site they dont own till you pay for it.
I know people who have waited upto 6weeks to then be told, the part is discontinued.
There good to deal with but extremely slow on turn around times, something im not a fan with since i may aswell find the part on Auction for more and know im getting it.

Well they mention that you have to have the money posted up in order to buy the item...And I could see the turnaround being a bit slow as they have to get the item from the seller and then ship it out to you...
