Mel @ Raw or RawStrikerNorth?
Hi guys,
I've just spoken to rob at rawstrikernorth and had a chat about a few bits i need for the striker.
I didn't go through raw themselves as i couldn't find much in the way of parts/price list which is very present on the RSN site.
Will i be paying a big premium through strikernorth, i.e. is he just going to source the parts through mel and charge me more?
Cheers,
ANdy

I would expect RSN prices to be identical. Otherwise everyone would just go to Mel!
What Prices are you after, I have some fairly uptodate order forms from when I orded my striker earlier this year..

As above, prices should be the same through an approved agent/reseller as from source. The source/agent should share the profit margin and
benefits....in an ideal world

Dont mean to hi jack your thread by the way!

Im in Basingstoke, but dont consider Hereford that far!! Its Definately not 'North', its only just on the border of south wales, lol!
I should be collecting mine in next few weeks (allthough ive been saying that for last couple of months!), so if theres anything you want collected
for then, let me know you can pick them up from mine instead.

I'm sure rob is good but I've never dealt with him.Mel was excellent during my build,couldn't of been more helpful even tho I only
really bought his chassis and suspension,lending me bits to try and give him back etc when I decided I didn't like them,I.e front body work
etc.I'm sure strikernorth must be just as helpful too tho or I doubt he'd deal with him.

Nothing in particular at the mo but I do need somebody to help me still with this knocking on the front left of my car.
Its either the upright or lower wishbone. I have checked both as much as possible without replacing and it still does it. Its such a P in the A.
Ill put a SOS post up soon when the can is back on the road. I can drive it to a compitent LCB and hopefully they will spend the afternon on it with
me.

I spoke to Rob at rawstrikernorth a couple of months back (very helpful and friendly guy) as he seemed to be a lot easier to get hold of than Mel.
However, he said anything ordered from him has to be passed back to Mels operation so you might as well deal directly.
