    I have had great success with Rimmers. They will price match other online suppliers and the freight charge appears to be the cheapest - so best of both worlds. They are quite responsive to queries.

    I prefer to buy locally but when I can't buy something here I use Rimmer Bros. Their website is good and the automated shipping calculator is good.

    I tried using L. R. Series once but won't bother again.

    I have used LRDirect - helpful people but their packaging was terrible. Despite their claim that everything was packed carefully the box had burst open though being too big and not having any padding around the parts. Bits were missing.

    I will second the packaging, or lack thereof, skills at LR Direct. My indicator assembly for the defer arrived with 1layer of bubble taped ,loose in a box with other stuff! Needless to say it was US!
    However to their credit a quick email with photos and a new 1 was on its way! They did admit the packaging was not up to transport standard. The new 1 required 10 mins with a Stanly knife to access it! I didnt even have to send the broken 1 back.

    Cheers Scott
