Jamie & Co are brilliant. I've placed a couple of orders well into the afternoon recently and have received them the following morning.

I’m fortunate enough to live in Norfolk and able to visit Jamie at North Waltham. I’ve always received a very warm welcome, cup of coffee and time for a chat — Jamie is a real enthusiast and has several projects/ rebuilds going on in his workshop. It’s worth dropping in if you’re in the area.

I've been using Jamie and team ever since I've owned a 7, friendly and efficient service all priced reasonably.
Buy an Austin 7 they said, It's easy to work on they said !

I always find these threads slightly queasy. I'd agree with all the above, but most recently I've used David Cochrane's Austin 7 Components for an order of littles and also had a package from Tony Betts both of whom send out similarly well and with which I've had good parts fit. I've also bought wood from Priors (delivered conveniently closer to my home for easy pick up).
Perhaps the biggest issue is something just posted on the auction thread - how do we inform new owners who are potentially impulse buying NEW parts from ebay which are plainly priced above the cherished supplier's selling range? It would be a double positive to get them into contact with the trusted gang for their main consumables, as well as saving them money.
Could not the Association advertise on ebay a pack of all the cherished or advertising suppliers price lists and contacts, for the price of a stamp? Or even for near-nothing for an e-list? i.e. Under "Austin 7 Seven new consumable parts". Even if it wasn't followed up, it would be a free, re-occurring advert for the common good of the Seven community, wouldn't it?
