Morning,
So. Audi Tradition.... with an eye for future orders. No part requests please on this one. I'm hoping to find another member that would be willing to do the UK part of the process, split the box into smaller packets and post onwards. This will probably work best for all those small and hard to find niggly trim pieces, hoses, clips that are low cost but the postage kills. Plus the problem of ordering from the UK and the AT site not taking cards.
So from here in Germany, I can order and pay for AT pieces, they arrive very quickly and are well packed. Uk members can pay into my PP or UK bank, so far, so good. I buy your parts, you reimburse me, I check them here in Germany, I post the bundle across to the UK. Its the next bit that matters.
Parts arrive with me bundled together, some are boxed in a larger box and will simply need a stamp, addressing and posting from the UK. Some trim pieces arrive in a plastic sleeve with the picking note and will need a box buying, addressing then posting. Alternatively the UK member holds these and people collect from them.
Would someone be willing to be the UK end of this? It would mean splitting a box of bits, possibly packing them and posting to members who refund the postage at the UK end? Alternatively, being the UK collection point for people who want to pop around. On a previous thread a few people kindly said they would help. It's a bit of a thankless task but does open up spares that are impossible or hard to find.
I feel a massive sense of responsibility here. Last order I placed, all up was almost £200... people are giving me money in good faith, I want them to absolutely get what they order. It will need a degree of goodwill and trust to make it happen but there are benefits for everyone.
If you're up for this, send me a pm and we can go from there with an eye to placing an order before too long.

so turnaround from box being received to individual orders being sent out might not be super speedy. Worth a try do you think?
