Muzzza, I completely agree. I've had great service from them. Some of their parts are cheaper than I could land them here myself. If their bulk buying rates allow them to give us a good deal and still make a living, I'm all for it.

Affordable Racing Parts also has great prices for LS, SBF, SBC and BBC engine parts.

Mmmm why not blame the burger.

Wouldn't have anything to do with the quantity some people eat, would it...

Maybe some people who blame the burger should take a good look at the menu board one day when their off to the health food shop. They may find the same product on our
board.

Anyway I have been in food long enough to not waste time trying to convince people to eat any particular thing..

I remember Joan Collins was once asked for her best weight loss tip. She said "Dont drink Diet Coke." When asked why She said "Because I havent seen a skinny person drink it yet!"

Its not what you put in, its what you dont burn off.

Always love a good hyjack.

I agree with you Bernie, what you put in your mouth is your own choice. Mc Donald's are in my book a company that "Gets it".

Back to the story, after a long negotiation a reasonable settlement has been found.

I will however never deal with them again.

Phil

To add another twist to this catastrophe, the parcel arrived from the US to the Australian distributor in 6 days. So I could of had the goods a couple of weeks ago if they were sent direct.

I still don't have them as the courier company has lost them

Yep as a joke I once sent a post card to myself and a workmate on the day I arrived in Emerald QLD. Had three wonderful weeks up there then arrived home and got the post card another week later...HA !
