been chasing up a set of points and a condenser today. went into the motor factors and got them ordered in, went in a little while later and ye man told me they were gonna cost 35 euro!! i'm guessing he was chancing his arm, told him i could get em for a few pound each up north and he told me they were comming from enniskillen anyway and that i wouldnt get them any cheaper! needless to say i told him where to go with his 35 euro set of points!!
is anyone else getting this "great value"!!

I've given up buying anything here as the costs are just crazy, I get all my parts/etc from the UK at half the price even with the shipping added in, only problem is having to wait for stuff but if your not in a hurry there's no issue.

i think this lad was trying to get a little extra! i rang up a couple of other places and the most expensive i found was €15, there must be a shortage of condensers about though, i'l have 1 by saturday so it's all good

I was quoted 85 euro for a wheel bearing in limerick........and the owner of the motor factors was even surprised at the price of them. Not sure who is scamming who.....the suppliers or the motor factors.
