Glad you said, that, I thought the same (but after I'd posted), but wasn't sure if someone would suddenly appear with a link  :roll:

Ah, but that is only a weakness from your point of view. They are a wholesale company and retail is, quite frankly, a pain in the bum by comparison. We do both, so I can state it with confidence..... just don't tell any of my retail customers  :lol:

I had been thinking about that one.  It is also an advantage as they dont need a shop or any shop staff to run it, that saves other costs and hassle.


Do yo all agree that seeing the Britpart logo in another ad(eg  Paddocks) is like the Intel Pentium logo and sound coming up during a computer advert (say for PC World)? ie its a stamp of good quality aswell as saying that they sell Britpart parts

that depends on whether you like Britpart or not........

My view is that it is a good thing, but I know people who don't like Britpart, they prefer genuine LR bits as they think (rightly or wrongly) that they are better parts, so there view would be no for that question.

Neil Jones:
Yeh I guess so, although if I want a genuine part I go straight to Guy Salmon's, so wouldn't bother with anywhere else.

Is anyone on here familiar with Autopost?  What do you think of them?
