Anyone in Brisbane interested in helping me broker a deal?

supermattyp

I'm trying to work out the logistics to buy a car in Brisbane and get it to port to ship here to the States. I would need someone knowledgeable to inspect the vehicle and act on my behalf in terms of doing the deal, getting the proper paperwork and getting the vehicle to port for me.

I would be able to wire money in "less than $10k increments" into your account in order to pay for the vehicle.

Right now I'm still waiting on an actual shipping quote to get the vehicle but I've already handled all of the fees and brokering I would need on my end.

Is anyone interested, able and trustworthy to help me with this?

Thanks!

I thought the border would still be closed in 2 weeks? Due to open on 10th July.

Mate has a QLD drivers license and I'm his boyfriend as far as any police are concerned ;-)

Hopefully it is good for your relationship to spend two weeks together in quarantine.

Is Jimbo not QLD/BNE based?

If so, he might be worth getting it touch with having done the shipping into Aus option.

I suggest you read the actual rules in health directive #5 a bit closer. Your mate may be able to claim exempt resident status but there is no provision for partners to automatically be exempt. :)

It's refreshing to hear people actually have a national plan during this time and follow it.

I live on the beach right near the Florida border and it's the wild fucking west right now. Everyone on vacation. Nobody wearing masks, nobody distancing. Is it any wonder my state has added 3200 new cases in the past 3 days??

Very easy to cross the border and rtn to NSW, just make sure you print off a pass that you stick in the windscreen, a few simple questions online and away you go and you'll be waved through, a guy came to mine from Byron last week to buy some DJ gear and he had no issues whatsoever.

@supermattyp, if I can help let me know, the Port is unfortunately over an hour away as I'm far western suburbs of Brisbane, and if it's not an 850 it's definitely not my area of expertise ?

I appreciate the offer. I'm looking at buying a skyline GTR. I've tried reaching out to the port to get some info about RORO shippers not haven't heard back yet. Maybe if I hear something back and I'm able to make contact with someone I might need some local assistance. I'll keep you in mind.

Thanks for that
