How do,
In the process of slowly gathering parts for a Bandit rebuild, and of cause trying to do it as cheap as possible. Seen a few yankie sites that are about 50/50, some things cheap,some things dear,and want to sting you on post. I`m trying to get valves at the moment,and want ORIGINAL. Some prices from high 20`s to high 40`s. Theres got to be some better out there, any one in the know?
Cheers John.

Don't know where to get cheap original parts but if you do find something in the states and the postage is a little on the rich side check out these guys

Just used them to ship over a wheel bearing assembly for my car and it was a pretty painless process.

Best Ive found so far is Part Shark for standard, genuine Suzuki bits. They were cheaper than Bike Bandit when I was looking last. Freight can be a pain. Sometimes you have to wait a while.
I also know of others that have lost stuff in transit.

I meant, I know of other individuals who have lost their purchases in transit.
I do not believe the problem is isolated to any particular supplier.
The lower cost freight methods tend to take longer to deliver and are higher risk.
That said I have not had an experience with items getting lost.
