The Wonders Of VX Dealers (stealers)
« on: 02 September 2012, 15:56:46 »
My check straps are clicking on the Estate so I rang up my local VX Stealer (Marehay VX) to enquire if they have any of the little plastic bush things in stock.
We don't have any & I think we never have had, you'll have to buy the complete Check Strap!! How much is that with my discount? £42.00 :o :o :o :o
I know dealers do sell them, because Mark replaced two on Burt when I first got him & I think he said they were around 20-30p each :-\ :-\
So £84.00 for both doors as opposed to a few pence for some little plastic bushes. At least Dick Turpin wore a mask >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(

I don't think the bush comes with the check strap anyway.

It's a game I play. Ask for the part by description. They always come back with the same reply as you had. And swear blind they don't have any in stock either.

Then give them the part no. And watch the faces go red, ESP as they usually have the part in stock IME. ;D

Its a bit unfare though. The info they have doesn't help find the the bush itself.
