Of course, experiences do differ.

And it's worth noting that when DHL deliver a parcel from them, you will be stung with duties and an admin fee, so it's worth considering this (the last set of 4D0511115AN 2.8qs springs I sent to London via UPS attracted a total fee of £104).
As you say Dean, YMMV, but thankfully I've not had an issue with this company, otherwise I wouldn't have suggested them. I've also used another company in Germany, but their site tends to only give a price if they have the stock. I also tend to email them to confirm stock.

As for DHL/UPS (you mention both above), it must be a cost+weight issue that warranted the £104 fee. The last item I ordered that I can find a receipt for was for a D2 fog light grill. Cost was 67 Euro + 28 Euro for postage. No fees.

And that unfortunately is the code I used on the other site.

Brian, did you notice the comment from Dean about the AP part number? Just hope between all the posts (and edits), you ordered the correct parts.
