Looks like they are based in the US. Watch out you don't get stung at Customs for paying duty.

I used to use them exclusively for my Lexus LS400 parts as they were far cheaper than anybody in Europe. The previous poster is correct in stating about import duties. They usually use either Fedex or UPS, both of whom have delivered to me. On the one occasion that I received an import duty bill, it was 2 weeks after my goods had been delivered and UPS had paid it on my "behalf", neglecting to tell me about it on delivery. A tersely worded email to the effect that I hadn't authorised them to pay anything on my behalf, saw the bill consigned to the bin.

Rockauto are excellent. Just make sure that all of your parts are from the same warehouse or the shipping fees are astronomical.

I've used these boys quite a lot for my weekend chevy truck, I've always found them good with dilivery in a couple of days or so, it's usualy been 50/50 chance of having to collect the parcel from the sorting office to pay the duty.
