    Default $40 in shipping for a replacement cable???? Seems extreme....

    I went to order a replacement FlashScan V2 OBDII Cable, the cable itself is $19, no biggie. Then when i went to pay, the shipping for it is $40, for a grand total of $59... I live in Texas so it is not international or anything. The only shipping option is FedEX Internation Priority... What is the deal, why does it cost $40 to ship a cable that weighs less that 1 pound...

    Yes it is international, EFILive is based in New Zealand, where the product is shipped from.

    For the reason above, your best bet is to call up a US reseller and have one shipped from within the USA.

    Oh. I thought EFILive was US based. Makes sense now.

    Hey there, related question. Are there any retailers within the sound of my post that have this cable for sale in the US? All I'm finding online is the entire package. Thanks.

    Were you ever able to buy a cable?

    I cannot find any in the US...

    New link to resellers on new website:
    http://www.efilive.com/resellers

    Went through about 20 of the 88 resellers websites and no one had a cable to purchase online?

    So if anyone finds a way to but one let us know?

    I need a replacement cable too. TIRED of it slipping out of the V2 in the middle of things - my fault I broke the locking tooth somehow.

    Maybe we can do a group buy and they can squeeze 10 cables into that $59 box?

    Call one of our distributors. Both Digital EFI and SoCal diesel purchase these to keep as a stock item. If either are out of stock, I'm sure they could order some with their next order and have them tucked in the box to avoid the expense of shipping them separately.

    Cheers
