Used them a few times now, been excellent every purchase.
Be nice if they did free postage on orders over 100 quid, but I guess this would have to be regained on pricing elsewhere, every penny counts when you run a business I suppose!

True, and 10 quid is the most you ever pay.

I also have to do that. It's the way the shopping cart works. I can't work out any other way to do it. Cart charges you P&P for every item and once the order is placed I'll refund the excess P&P once I've sent the order.
Plenty of places charge you a minimum P&P charge, say £8 to cover their time in processing the order. I can understand why if you're paying someone £15 per hour and it takes 20 minutes to process an order that's £5 in labour and then there's the business overheads, rent, rates, etc. to take into account. I prefer to only charge the P&P charge {includes packaging. Jiffy bags and packing tape aren't free}. I work on the principle that you win some and you lose some. The customer who only spends £3 this time might come back with a £300 order next week.

Really impressed with service from Torbay Lambretta. Prices good, stock levels good and quick delivery. You can't fault the service whatsoever. One of the best out there IMO.
Oh, and EssexGP, (and everyone who hasn't, yet) you can try Torbay too now and you'll see what we mean.

Although relatively local, the post takes the same time regardless. No connection, just a satisfied customer pleased to have a reliable supplier.
Simon.

Totally agree with above posts.
Maybe some out there, but I have yet to come across better service in the Lambretta dealer & parts world. Well done Torbay Lambretta for raising the bar so high.
