    Not you specifically, but for many importers there is no backup anyway. How can you get less than none?

    Don't get me wrong - I am prepared to pay handsomely for expertise where there actually is some.
    If it wasn't for a concise set of rules, we might have to resort to common sense!

    Well, you'll be heartened to hear that I'm contributing quite generously to the local economy in order to find out.



    because of a key punching error on my part when entering his e-mail address, nor did I appear to have a delivery status notification bounced back to me. I trust this goes some way to restoring his faith that maybe there are some people out there who are interested....
    Yes, that's a bit disappointing -- the particular finger-trouble you had should, if certain other people had had their wits about them, still have resulted in a successful delivery to me. Even if not, you certainly should have got a DSN.

    Still, all's well that ends well. I'm not going to name names as to who didn't get back to me, but suffice to say that none of them were KB locals, as far as I know. But that was a little disappointing, too.

    Thanks for your reply, and I'll follow up with the local guy you recommended.

    Cheers,

    Chris.

    Quoted for truth.

    How much difference would it make if I were to buy BST rims from the states? Sure it's nice having a local dealer (and tbh, I would probably buy from them anyway), but wheels only need so much support.

    I hear what you are saying. Its no excuse for the many distributors who provide abysmal to no backup but it kind of accentuates the problem. More offshore purchases equates to less through the normal channels and less inclination to provide any backup due to a lower income stream.

    Having said all that it is rather too easy for Joe Bloggs to become a distributor and provide no backup. They come and they go......
