Will this put you in breach of any agreement as a UK dealer bypassing
LRA as the Aus distributor ?
Once things become "out in the open" to coin a phrase, commercial dealings unlike
dealing with Forum members on a small scale , may not go unnoticed.
This Company will be "reselling" product Nick.
Cheers , Neil

Hi Large...
I rang this mob to get some advice regarding the problems I had with a Parrot car kit I had installed some time ago. The bloke was helpful and sorted out my issue over the phone. This company is a franchise and looks like it is predominantly based in NSW. I had no other dealing with them but agree with Neil that they will be re-selling your products or perhaps replacing the bits their installers break as they attempt to fit car kits and GPS units etc...
Can't see the harm in it myself... after all, what sort of bits and pieces would they sell anyway? & perhaps competition is what our local LR dealers need...
Cheers

LRA must be charging one hell of a margin if TLO can supply cheaper including carriage charges 
oh and BTW Quote:Now with Tasmod sills(don't get upset DG)
...just to clarify ..never had a problem with the product... it's very nice ...just the way it was being sold openly here without contribution to the running of this site. That is something that should concern all members if, of course, they give a stuff  21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

25% so I,m told and if it wasn't for postage cost all my spares would come from TLO at half the price

Hey Guys
Thanks for the info
when i said parts it was basically only the ipod connector he was after as apparently LRA do not market this item in Aus.
I have supplied via Disco3 some of these to Aus members with no problem but as this guy may want more than 1 or 2 i thought i'd check them out.
