Of course they are going to charge a markup for shipping these kit homes door to door. The guy I talked to was named Rob Moya, said they would be opening a storefront somewhere on Kalanianaole in Hilo in three weeks or so. Quoted me a price of $22,000. delivered and another $3000 for assembly in about 72 hours.He said they ship 2 kits per container from Shanghai. IMHO this could be a viable alternative for some people on this island.
Of course I would do a lot more research, but that sounds pretty reasonable to me. If you wanted to do the ordering straight from the source, great, but I sure hope you speak Chinese!
Rob's number, just FYI, is 966-5496.

Thanks Ayuh Dave for looking into this also! Being treated wood is certainly a positive as I believe they are pine lumber which is soft. Think we may stick with the fifth wheel idea and when we are on island do a thorough look into this company. Hopefully they will be up and running by then.
I have seen a completed home in Leilani Estates built in Bali, broken down, shipped to Hilo and then rebuilt. It was considerably more expensive, but very beautiful. This home was located on the corner closest to the homeowners association building and park.
