There are many ways these company make money postage is charged at a standard rate that covers and makes them money they make money on the parts that they supply if they are that good why is a minimum spend not pointed out as you start looking in today's climate any sale is a bonus

I actually had the same problem with AF, I recognise their problem, next time I try I will make sure I need plenty of stuff. As they charge for postage I'm not that sympathetic though obviously postage may well be free if you buy enough. The credit card thing is a bit of a conundrum how else would you do business online?

Labelling AF as 'tat' ?

To call them tat was a little harsh agreed

To be honest if you have a main dealer near its better just to walk in and get the bits you need they are not any more expensive either in my findings. overfinch modified |

I’m not complaining about companies setting minimum spend requirements but it caught me out, only when I got to try and checkout did it say my £9.25 wasn’t enough. It may well have been stated elsewhere on the site and I missed it, I actually got the filter from Halfords same price ( same filter actually) ordered online and picked it up this morning from my local store.

I've just realised simplest fix for me is to buy two oil filters, one goes into stock! Do we get any sort of deal from AF, I'll give them a ring in the morning. Geoff |

Just messing on internet (eBay) before turning in for the night and ordered one for £11.49 delivered, Halfords as you might expect, or not, supplied me with the wrong one so will have to take it back. Geoff |

I just email Rob at Duckworth Land Rover and it arrives at the house. Next day if they have it in stock, the day after if they don’t. 2002 4.6 Vogue SE - Alveston Red with Lightstone Leather

I understand the pain from both sides on this score, you have to put yourself in the other guys’ shoes.
