I understand the frustration of jordan in his 1st post and I can totally understand the modelshops not opening on a dead day. Je spares used to open on a Saturday for a short while then stopped it was just not economically viable. So if that's the case the shops would have to put up the prices across all of the products to pay the wage/wages of the worker/owner and none of us want that.
I think jordan had the money in his pocket burning a hole and wanted to spend it ASAP and come home with a car boot full of his new purchases.. I really can't blame him and he just posted to let off a bit of steam. No malace intended in my opinion just a bloke disappointed
I try not to mail order anything I much prefer the human interaction my lhs provides and the vast experience and knowledge they offer at no extra cost.
Luckily for me I drive past Je spares everyday on my way to/from work
Ross mods is 7 miles from my house bmm about 10 miles both open Saturday's
But I also understand the need for the Internet shops for the convenience of people working strange shifts or not feesable to drive 20 miles each way to a shop that's a £15 round trip in my motor so for a bit of shock oil it ain't happening!!!
The moral of the story is you can't blame jordan for his passion and also can't blame the shops who are equally as passionate. But it comes down to a work/ home life balance that anyone who works deserves
Good on you Darren it's no good being a wage slave. all work and no play would make Darren a dull lad!!!
