Hey KB thanks for the link, prices look good, are they US dollars or where is the shop based ? also wonder what postage is.
Be worth finding out going through with the sale to the credit card entry to see what they actually cost in $AUD

Did a quick check.
Prices and postage converted to AUD make the items slightly more expensive than Stewmac.

Wow that's weird DB I did the notched edge radius gauges set of 4 as test sale.
I guess it depends what you buy.
From Stew Mac including cheapest postal option was $57.20 US

Amplified parts was $44.36 US cheapest postal option

I tested it using more upmarket tools, and the fastest postal option and compared it to SM and the DHL post rate.
Also, with the $30ish DHL shipping your order arrives in 3-4 days.
US post and UPS will take 2-3 weeks in my experience, and not always get to you in the best condition...

Now I am beginning to wonder if the currency converter I used was incorrect...
Priced the same items as Laz and Amplified ended up being $10 dearer??

Anyhoo, it looks like Amplified are buying some of thier tools from the same mob that makes a lot of SM gear. If so, the quality will be excellent.
