Peter Lloyd Rallying - Avoid at all cost !
Just wanted to make people aware of this: https://www.scoobynet.com/group-buys...sher-afff.html
The way Peter Lloyd Rallying have handled this is terrible,their attitude towards their customers is some of the worst i've come across for a while.
The group buy price was supposed to be £30 all in and we've all been charged £33.01 ! One guy paid for two items but only received one and now they are refusing to send out the second item eventhough he has paid for it.
Take a read through the group buy yourselves and see how bad this company has handled this.

I've managed to get one of the two extinguishers I paid for, he's with-holding the second because I had the courtesay to inform him that I was going to let people know how dissapointed I was at the way he has handled the group buy.
I was in 2 minds because of the reported delivery complications but because it was Peter Lloyd I decided to give them the benefit of the doubt and once I knew the courier they used I wasn't too concerned. You live and learn.

Thank **** I didnt buy one, was mulling over though.
Anyway check out your local Llyods chemists I bought this little baby for £4.25, fire blitz model alpaha 600.
If its just a local thing my local shop has about 7 on the shelf, so I could help out.

I can't imagine they'll be getting away with the one for long! I've not seen them on this forum before, looks like they're lacking good service from reading that thread. I hope you get what you've paid for pretty quickly. I trust the credit card company will be on this one.

we quoted andrew tierney for a hand held £20 +vat each and £10 delivery inc vat

as for jonmc he got it all wrong and threatened me with slagging me off and he goes to msa meetings and so on. as for his order he ordered 2 but we run out we sent him 1 and the other was going to follow at no extra cost
so when you have a problem you threaten people with your power of who you know if he was any type of person he could have rung me up and sorted the problem out
so any body who bought the hand held off me please ask andrew tierney what he was quoted in the e mail or i will send you a copy myself

Also: a two litre AFFF extinguisher will be more effective than the seven remaining extinguishers in the local chemist: and probably several more shopfulls too!

a nice polite, concise email from the seller
if the price was originally quoted, whats the issue?
still saved £2, its not like they are cheaper in halfords or anything!!!
i better get one myself thinking about it!!

As it all went so pear-shaped why not just do what the chap says in the last few post - send them back under distance selling.
What I would say though is that they need to be sure whether the guy was charged for 1 or 2. If he was charged for 2 and only got 1 thats really not on.
The following bun fight is just poor communication.

I have used PLR on several occasions for expensive items over the years and have always found them helpful and informative.
Used them only recently for a new 5-point Sabelt harness and extinguisher kit. You'll be hard pressed to find a cheaper supplier of plumbed-in extinguishers and they're very good on their prices for race harnesses.
Other than that, I can't comment further.

Loads of the local rally guys down this way (West Wales) use them and swear by them. You can't please everyone all of the time. All companies make mistakes or have problems arise but it's how they are dealt with that makes a great company.
Agree with peter loyd though. If someone threatened me they be told to f**k off but if he has paid for something, you either supply or refund. End off

I bought a tennis racquet and gym membership from these guys and it was spot on.
Didn't know they supplied car parts too, bonus
Seriously, looks like PLR came out of this ok and that someone else needs to wind there screaming neck in, as for MSA events/meets etc The guys in motorsport I know would take a chance on a bad recommendation for saving £2

I stated that I would communicate the details of this transaction with those on the MSA and Subaru circle with whom I speak. Copies of my comments have been posted. The fact that I have nothing good to report is your problem.
You communication was non-existant - how was I to know that the second would follow, read a crystal ball. What you actually stated in your email was that you had made an error and would send the second at no cost. The fact that you had run out when I was only the second person to phone in from the group buy is a further example of how poorly your business is run.
If was able to phone you up I would, I work in an area where I am not allowed to use the work phone or take in my own phone. Until I finish my current job I have no way of contacting you during the week expect by email.
You state that you refunded my credit card imediately after I had the courtesay to inform you that I would report the fact of the transaction is another lie, as only yesterday you emailled me to state that you never charged me for the second extinguisher. I had to provide you with a copy of the credit card receipt.
Copies of all the emails are in the GB thread so you are free to verify any of the facts above.
Oh, and yes please, I would like a copy of the email, not forwarded as these can be altered but sent as an attachment or printed and posted, along with a copy of my refund receipt which I am hoping you have actioned as you have not informed me either way.

delivery charges are £10 up to 20 kilo
so if you had one or 5 it is the same delivery price
i quoted £20+vat as a price for 10 off
this price has nothing to do with the website we done them cheeper for the group ok DAZ W
after all this hassle over a poxy hand held with jonmac i wont be doing any more deals ever withscoobynet
i give the correct prices in a email and then get slated by him

What's been missed here is that the shipping would have been £15+vat for ALL 10 UNITS shipped to one place. WHich is not uncommon on group buys, where the organised gets all the units shipped direct and people collect or get shipped from there. In this case they all ended up being shipped direct, and £10 is not an extortionate amount for courier shipping.
As for "only save 2 quid" in percentage terms it's a lot when you might at best get 30% off as a retailer (so expect PLR to pay maybe £17.50 from a £25 retail). So after all this fuss, PLR stand to make about £25, but with all of this going on, Peter's time would have been better spent in bed or down the pub!
