thats all good but rang you three times for a certain part and u didnt return phone call.No1 lesson in business is customer service and i know we all get busy but always return calls.Dont take this the wrong way as we all need bike wreckers at some time and a lot have closed over the last ten years hope u do well .

Good luck with your enterprise  :) i hope you make a go of it  :) :) Finding what is a fair price is the hard thing , i think a lot of wreckers have gone tits up in the last 10 yrs because they would rather hang onto a part for ever than negotiate a fair price. With Ebay trade me etc over the last 10 yrs i have bought complete bikes to get a part and paid less than the local wrecker wanted for that one part ( witch had been on his shelf since 1978  ::)

Its a good time to be buying up that pre 90 stuff as its still relativley cheap out there  :)

My  sentiments exactly  TM  BILL  &   I have done the same thing  in the past couple of years.

All the best Sam :)I'll be chasing suzuki bits, Same goes, watch your pricing, I also bought whole bikes of flebay for a couple of hundred rather than paying $90 for an average cond TM/TS/TC kickstart from a wreckers. Cheers Nob

The good thing about telling the truth is that you don't have to remember what you said.

I think he has a finger problem - there's 2 too many '00's - should read $10.00 ;).
