andlid Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 any recommendation on breaker yards in the UK? Tried Traynors up north of me for parts ... got mail they got them and price... told them I'll take it, heard nothing called them just now... asked for quote ref nr, asked for how much I'd been quoted... was told they only have one...ffs... seriously scam... = had someone paying more then 30£ per set of the part I was looking for So any yards operating online that you can get quotes from? preferable one of those quote systems where loads of breakers get a chance to throw in an offer. Seriously having a bad buying on the internet day today! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made my mind up to go for brand new... have to say a bit suprised at the quotes I got... New part ranging from 63£-107£ and second hand 25£-55£ with 3-6months warranty... wtf... went new in the end, after I ordered the first place came back and said sorry we now got these in stock again... duh...
