Electrical Parts Supplier Gets A Gold Star

Post by Morris Mike »

It is not very often I endorse the services of parts suppliers.

We all have different outcomes to our dealings with the major parts suppliers good and bad.

But on this occasion I must give one supplier a gold star.!!!

Working on my Austin 8cwt van (Morris Minor) last Friday afternoon I had fitted all new indicator lights front and rear but was having a problem with the switch located on the steering column only working when it felt like it.

After many attempts to rectify the problem a new switch was the only way forward.

The time was 4.15pm,where could I get a switch in short time,I rang a few major suppliers but had missed their deadline for the post or courier,Tuesday morning was the earliest for a new one to arrive.

I looked on Ebay for Morris Minor switches and came upon "Automobileelectrics" trading under the name Classic Automobile Electrics of Scunthorpe.

There was a phone number at the end of the listing,I phoned the number and told the gentleman of my urgent problem.
I will put a brand new one in the post straight away and you will get it in the morning he told me,I purchased the item as a Buy It Now by paypal.

At 9.00am the next morning the postman handed the small package to me,by 9.30am the item was fitted to the car and everything was working as it should...yippee.!!

And the price was cheaper than any other supplier,£25.00 including the postage.

I can only thank them for such a swift service....I will start using them as a main supplier from now on.

P.S Only one more supplier that comes close is Powertrack Ltd,I would recommend them anytime.

The name rings a bell. I'm sure I've bought from him before at discounted prices and the service has been top quality - OE kit, fast post etc.
