Paul Amey Posted February 26, 2022 Report Share Posted February 26, 2022 I received a fantastic response time from James Paddock . I placed an order with them at 11am Friday morning and the item's arrived 24 hours later! Only down side was that they didn't have everything in stock. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mishmosh Posted February 26, 2022 Report Share Posted February 26, 2022 I love to read some positives! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Lindsay Posted February 26, 2022 Report Share Posted February 26, 2022 Yes, I must agree - they've been consistently good with my orders, many of which arrive next day which is excellent for off-shore UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unkel Kunkel Posted February 27, 2022 Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 I have always been very impressed by Paddocks, especially with delivery times. - I choose to forget the mechanical Powertune mechanical fuel pump they supplied because I think it was more an issue with their supplier rather than with them as a retailer and the courteous response with an offer of full refund was very promptly offered.

dougbgt6 Posted February 27, 2022 Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 Yes, Paddocks invariably next day delivery. And, grudgingly I have to say so are Rimmers. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulfc Posted February 27, 2022 Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 Used them over many, many years right up to last Thursday and they’ve been consistently excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeteH Posted February 27, 2022 Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 They where very obliging, when I asked them to pass the part to my Grandson to bring during lockdown. (go to the back door and ask for "fred") no issue there. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Lewis Posted February 27, 2022 Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 ive found all main suppliers have been excellent for many years with next day or earlier and no problems ever in the main canley classics , rimmer bros, JPaddocks , chris witor , club shop , all have been very smart and quick Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Amey Posted February 28, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2022 Yes indeed, the part not in stock at Paddock's were in stock at Rimmers (if slightly more expensive) and there response time was impressive as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Lindsay Posted February 28, 2022 Report Share Posted February 28, 2022 The basic benchmark is personal preference; they're all providing a very welcome service but there are some I use all the time due to the ease of their website and their lower costs both of parts and postage. Others I go to as they're the only supplier who has a particular part for sale, and some I don't use at all, usually the ones with no website that you have to phone - after I've explained the bit I want, the 'small bracket thingy that goes under the larger bit to the side of the engine' and no sorry I don't know the part number, they then tell me it's in stock at twice the price I was expecting, and going by the exasperated voice on the other end of the phone I feel I have to prove that I'm not another timewaster, so I buy it. So: it seems the good websites win, especially those from whom I can order late at night and the parts arrive next afternoon... do they have a nightshift?

Stratton Jimmer Posted February 28, 2022 Report Share Posted February 28, 2022 Every dealing I have had with Paddock's has been excellent. I haven't had any problems either with Rimmer's (price excepted) or Canley or Moss (price excepted). My most recent acquisitions have been via Monktons which is online but is Richard Symonds outlet. He can be slow but is definitely good value for money. https://www.monktonsclassiccarparts.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

68vitesse Posted March 2, 2022 Report Share Posted March 2, 2022 Not used James Paddock much but placed an order Monday pm, including 2 Gallons of oil, just been delivered with their economy delivery option. Only problem why did I order one carburettor gasket pack when the Vitesse has two, age?. Will definitely use again. Regards Paul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
