“A fantastic site. As soon as I placed the item up, I saw 8 companies had the part. Picked one company and asked for photos which were sent immediately and I then bought. Delivered to me within days. Will definitely be recommending this site to all. Thank you.”

“I purchase a gear box for my car from Altham Car Recyclers. It was duly delivered and fitted to my car. Having fitted the gear box my mechanic found that it was faulty beyond repair and had to fully remove it. This was all done at my expense. I called Altham, as did my mechanic, several times and we were both assured that the faulty gear box would be collected and returned to Altham. When, after some three weeks, I called again I was told that I would have to pay the transportation costs to return it. I explained that the item had already cost me a great deal of money and it would be more likely to be the responsibility of the supplier to pay further costs. It was at this point that we all suffered the Virus Lockdown and nothing was done until recently. I recently contacted Altham again explaining that the box was still languishing in the workshop of my mechanic and could we arrange for collection and refund. I was told that the guarantee period had expired, irrespective of the lockdown and that it was not likely that I would get any sort of refund. They did say that they would call me back on the matter, but never did. Using your recommended supplier has cost me a small fortune and I will think very hard about using your service again and I will advise others in the same way.”

“Was very happy with initial service. Sourced a door I required within 24hrs, I called them, spoke to the guy, he told me the door was perfect. I purchased the door, it was delivered, and after unpacking the item I discovered 2 very noticeable dents and rusting on the edge of the door. Now I’m not an idiot, I didn’t expect a perfect door, a few minor scratches etc is one thing but dents and rusting I’m afraid is unacceptable. I’ve tried contacting them and had no reply Extremely frustrated and dissatisfied customer”
