Bad service from suppliers

Postby KBP - COBRA » Sun Aug 24, 2008 7:51 pm

Hi Guys,

I am so sick of waiting for stuff I ordered weeks ago for my trike.

When you phone the supplier you are told that it would be sent this week.

Are you guys experiencing the same problems.

Lets hear what you guys have to say.

Hi Guys/Ladies

It is often that the goods aer sent with cheapest courier available. If you are ever needing transportaion urgently send me a PM and I can arrange to have them collected/delivered countrywide promptly. This is not a punt for business as I have plenty on my plate at the moment, but just to help fellow aviators where speed is of the esscence.

Cheers,


Andy

Even if it is, lets support fellow aviators especially if the service is effecient.

Had a call from Rainbow yesterday - It appears that KBP's supplier poblem was with his intercom parts and nothing to do Rainbow...

Six months ago I phoned Aviation Engines for a quotation and
Amith Puran faxed the info to me within 15 minutes.

Found the staff of Aviations Engines knowledgeable, friendly and very efficient on the phone.
