RE: Where can i buy fuel for cheaper?
If you end up buying online, you may come up to a price a little less. I only say this because you will have to pay for the price of the fuel and hazardous materials charges. With that, you may be paying more or less than what you do now. That's why most people don't buy fuel online because it's cheaper going the extra distance to the LHS to buy fuel with just tax charges instead of a $20 hazmat fee. You may be paying a lot for fuel now, but buying online could be more. Crunch the numbers a bit on different sites, ask them if they're willing to ship to Austrailia, look around a bit.

Wow, you pay over $40 US, thats preatty crazy, ive never bought fuel for more then $20 a gallon. Id say that youll definetly be able to get a much better deal on-line. Even with the shippiung and stuff, if you buy it for US prices, youll definetly sae money.

you think you have it bad in the uk we pay £18 for half gallon and £30 for a gallon for 25% shipping charges are a fortune if we buy online and if you use "E-BAY" to buy a RTR they wont send fuel

first of all they cant ship fuel as it is a dangerous good (especially on ebay, although you can ship fuel its more expensive and complicated), and second how old are you naynay12
I have a job and im only 14. (or is it naynay12 like you are 12?)
And third the reason fuel is so expensive over here is sort of stated in my first opinion, and also i dont think anyone in AUS produces fuel i think its all american.

LOL. ok i'll lay it out simple.
you probly wont be able to have it shipped.
noone knows where you can buy it from to have it shipped online.
and if you do find someone that will ship it, it probly wont be any/much cheaper.
so you probly dont need to make any new posts about this..
