Tom,
The first rule of holes is to quit digging once you realize you're in one. They either don't know that rule or don't realize they are in one. That is terrible customer service and to try to convince you to buy additional product without taking care of the original issue tells me a lot about what they think of us as customers. I bought a Robbins top for my MGB from Moss and had a fitment issue on the LAD placement and they sent me a replacement top after I verified stud placement on the car. I was thinking of Prestige for my Bugeye and TR4a tops and interiors, but Moss has a proven track record with me.
Thanks for sharing, Rut
 
Ok, looking at this from a cost standpoint, no shipping charges included, Moss is well over $1300 and AH Spares is well under $900...I can upgrade to leather eats for what Moss wants for vinyl! I must have missed a sale or something, pricing is outrageous!

Moss is a good company and I've never had a bad experience with them.

AH Spares is a great company and I've never had a less than stellar experience buying from them.

Amazingly, shipping is faster from AH Spares. Not kidding.
 
Steve,
I've bought sheet metal and other Bugeye parts from them and was very pleased...same with Moss.

Remember that items over $400 will likely get hit with a customs charge but it's still a better value.
 
If you buy from Moss I would definitely wait until they have one of there sales. You could save 20 to 30 percent.
You might also try "The little British Car Company". Their prices are always lower then Moss and they use the same part numbers as Moss.
I buy from them because I live in California and they don't charge me any sales tax either.
 
Moss usually has their interior/tops sale in the spring, gets you good savings. You can also buy through a Moss reseller and score some additional savings.
 
I have bought a number of things from Ken Lamers at British Sports Car Restorations. He is a Moss reseller and offers an approximately 15% discount on Moss products all the time. I just email him the Moss part numbers and he orders from them and re-ships to me. Takes a little longer, but service and responsiveness have been excellent.
Ken also offers discounted parts from British Parts Northwest, Engel Imports and Roadster Factory.

I've used him as well. It's a nice additional discount, just takes a few extra days. Wait for that Moss interior sale in the spring, then order through Ken and you could get a nice double discount.
