    It can be a problem with the large euro sites that they can be too big. You do get the feeling that returns and any other issues can be a huge pain.

    Saying that I've had delivery issues with DHL from scooter center orders and they have always been great about sorting things out.

    grantmc3 would advise NOBODY to buy from him as never sent my items and never recieved a refund of £120. Then had a call from his brother saying they were down the pub having drinks on me.

    Well shall i make a list.

    LLExeter (ebay) / chinesemotorcyclepartsonline.co.uk - Many generic items from them and always on time
    Wemoto - Bought a venom exhaust and it came fairly quickly (1 week), well packaged
    Welshscooterparts (ebay) - Got a new drive belt from them, was dispatched promptly
    ioconltd (ebay) - ordered some new keihin jets, arrived 2 days later
    sweetie-212 (ebay) - ordered exhaust gaskets, arrived the next day

    Although you all seem to hate Halfords, ive had many things from them, including a basic ratchet set, oils and greases, a bosch battery, and loads of other stuff. Its all been brilliant.

    TNT exhausts just seem to be tecnigas exhausts with TNT printed on them.. so anyone thinking TNT sounds a little bit better than tecnigas for a cheap exhaust.. Dont go there because they are the same lol

    Gotta say Pedparts are excellent, Helpful, courteus, polite.
    A pleasure to deal with, only crap thing is when they use royal mail delivery it can turn up antyime. Not their fault.
    Occasionally they send the odd incorrect part, but when you purchase a lot of items you have to expect the odd slip up. Overall a great service. :)

    Am I allowed to name the entirety of Birmingham as a bad seller or would that be too much? :D

    I've had a bad experience with them, wasn't their fault it was the carriers, but they tried to blame me, even on here they wrote in a thread saying what happened was my fault :( still buy from them tho lol

    I've recently had a bad experience with this seller.
    I bought a "Yamaha aerox pm tuning race crank shaft and 80cc big bore cylinder l/c" off this individual.
    eBay item number : 261234148964.

    Item description: "Pm tuning 80cc top and bottom end kit.
    No play what so ever as can be seen it wasent used for long. All parts are pm tuning.
    Came from good running bike engine that was stripped for parts so ask if you need anything else."

    What arrived, a battered 70cc kit!:

    Just to explain: I messaged the seller to ask if he had a buy it now price in mind.
    He said that I could send £80 to his paypal account and he'd end the auction.
