Not a problem
It doesn't take six monthes to get your hands on these parts either.
If people actually took the time to read the threads I post with the details in, I get the lines made to order and order in batches around once a week.
Then have to wait for them to be made, delivered to me either via courier or Royal Mail, then sent out via 1st class Royal Mail recorded.

I bought bolts from this dude, delivered within a mere handful of days, granted off the shelf items not custom ordered, but can't fault the service.

Ah yes, it's funny how sellers who have a reputation always seem to be unlucky with items being lost in the post.
Serious.

You wouldn't believe how bad Royal Mail is, when your sending loads of things out a week you expect at least one to go missing, customer gives wrong delivery address etc
That's why all BRAKELINES are sent recorded delivery so at least if they go missing I can get the replacement costs back for them.
Low value stuff goes out standard first class, if it gets lost I just send another set out no problems.
Just look at the number of threads around the place saying the dvla didn't recieve my change of ownership or sorn documents now I have a fine what can I do??
Post goes missing everyday it's a fact of life and with today's announcement I can't see it getting better any time soon

Swampy I think alot of peoples issue is your lack of communication. When I last bought something off you it was strut brace bolts. After 3 weeks there was no package so I PM you and got no reply to any messages even though you had been online, I did eventually get a set but according to the post mark they hadn't been sent till the day after I PM you.
Maybe if you communicate better people might not complain so much

Communicating won't be an issue now as Scott has removed my privilege to advertise in the for sale section.
So only way I can sell stuff now is people approach me I spot them requesting stuff in threads.
Unless of course Scott wants to let me move off the naughty step

Swampy the whole idea of you having your access to the for sale section removed is you cant sell on here. Sorry but we have had a lot of complaints and regardless of reasons for them, we have to act on that.
Any selling outside of the for sale sections is not allowed and will be removed.
If you have any questions or an issue with this, Please PM me
