I am afraid of buying stuff from sewells now. Their shipping is overpriced, i complained about it a bit and the moderator deleted all my comments in the vendors section and sewell had disabled my account on their site... i don't know if sites like this are trustworthy . They are definitely here for our money, but are they here for us? don't think so

i've never had probs with shipping by sewell.. they charge ALMOST flat rate... i ordered 5 parts and 2 parts shipping was kinda same... i know it's a ripoff for the 2 parts... but hey i needed pads...
BTW they are $40+shipping = ~50 not $55... and no doubt it's not worth it ... but hey aftermarket quality tips are at least $70 and they are weld on.. so add the labor to that... these are clamp on... no need for labor.. it's up to you to judge.. but hey... if you've got $600 drop it on an axle back... got a 1500 drop it on a JoeZ... got more... go custom

well i was going order the F sport badges, i wasn't even complaining about 40 bucks for 1 small badges, i am completely and totally happy with the price. I just found 10 bucks to ship 2 badges which will cost less than 80 cent to ship with USPS or less than few bucks to ship with UPS ground. They are charging 10 bucks, i just mentioned about it and immediately the moderator deleted my comments and Sewell disabled my account.

Just got them in. They look nice. "thicker" and longer than stock. They are round and slightly angled - they look totally straight on website. Apparently they are tips from a Landcruiser. I'll have pics up soon. BTW the clamps are invisible from the side, they are built-in with the tip too. Overpriced, but convenient.

how long does it take you to package 2 badges in an envelope? less than 1 minute? 1 minute of work = 8 bucks? WOW they are surely earning a high income. you don't think 40 bucks for a small badge is already including their pays?

some people i guess have to learn the art of making them... intricate pieces... these things needs effort and design... those costs have to be spread around... through the use of projected sales and other mechanisms... there are reasons why each thing is priced that way... if the F-sports are $40 why do people pay more for the BP emblems... why not get simple emblems and paint it... paint is cheap!... its the convenience... even shipping... and other costs... it's not just USPS that they use... USPS has problems that FedEx does not... tracking for example is not updated as often as it is on FedEx... FedEx has better customer service... that's what you pay for... if they had given the USPS option... i'll take it... cos it's cheaper... if not than so be it... if i really need it... i'll take it...

I know right? would you like some when i am ready to sell my replicas?
their prices is not the main concern, but they disabled my account just because i asked a question? What happens if i ordered the item then they disabled my account? then i will have to call my credit card company to get my money back won't i?
that is something to think about.

Do yall know the differences (e.g. Diameter)? I'd like to buy the biggest one. Also, aesthetically pleasing.
Thanks!
