I thought about getting one as a spare, the motors sell for half of what they are asking for the complete unit

I can't see anything that fits mine of any use. Maybe I am missing something

I'm wondering about getting a condenser or two JRB000140.
I'll make my mind up in the next few minutes.
Is this the sort of item that's worth having as a spare?

what about a crank sensor (NSC100880) at £36, again worth having as a spare?

I had a catalogue sent to me, easier than navigating the site. Marked a few bits l might get but not a great deal for me.

Default RSC000131 Tyre Protector Kit

In the Rimmer bros magazine for August 2019 sale clearance price is £12.00 including vat, normal price £18.00 so quote that and I am sure they would need to stick by it or at least should.

If you click to buy though it is coming in at £15.00 so what is all that about why can they not stick to what it says in the magazine ?

Order Summary Subtotal: £15.00 Shipping:
(Additional Shipping Options may be available after you Proceed to Checkout)
£7.95 VAT: UK & EU Only £4.59
Total Cost £27.54




https://rimmerbros.com/Item--i-RSC000131

PS on the magazine it state you need to quote (UK1819D)

Still a horrendous mark up when I was told what they paid for the stock they have...!
Definitely should be honoured IMO, we paid a fair chunk more and sold them for £6.99 each.

For what it's worth to members, we've bought a lot of our stock from the same places they have and we'll more than happily price beat if needed, just drop us a PM.

That’s business Matt, rimmers will discount certain items if you ask too, I have done this on a few occasions, they want repeat business the same as anywhere else.

I totally understand that it's business - we all sell with a mark up.
This was purely down to it being a safety item, and I'd rather get more out there than have people hesitate due to cost.
