#1 Purchasing and freight forwarding
Posted: Wed Feb 10, 2021 7:57 am
I see we have 12 Polish members.
Ok, so I need a tank for my e-type petrol to propane conversion. I want a Stako W36008508 which is 85 L and designed to accommodate a Vialle LPi pump. Not easy to find.
Stako (Polish company) suggest I should buy it from Vialle (Netherlands company). Vialle consider one tank delivery to Australia would be too expensive.
Meanwhile I have found a potential retailer – in Poland:

I’ve tracked this down to a smart looking residence in downtown Wegrzce. Their cost to deliver to Australia is brutal.
Fortunately, there is a very prominent Polish parcel forwarding service:
https://www.parcelpoland.tk/
Their cost to forward the tank to Aust. is more reasonable, although still more than the cost of the tank. However, PFP seems to be a one person operation, using a pseudonym and false portrait images (LinkedIn). The address I would need to send the 40 kg tank sent to is the 11th floor of a residential apartment block in Radom.
