I've had the same experience with VB many times, their accuracy rate is
about 90% which is terrible. That is, I've never had an order of more than
10 items where all parts were right. And they have _no_ technical support.
I find this negates their occasional price advantage by the time I ship all
the wrong parts back, locate the right ones after another week of downtime
and hassles.

Don't know if TRF or Moss have GT6 support to the degree of my TR6, but
they are far more reliable in my experience. I'd recommend TRF first as
they are a TR specialist.
