Jay,
I understand.
Although I don't care much for Moss Motors, I still do, occasionally,
patronize them when my local guy orders Spridget parts for me, from them. I
find that I do send a lot of their stuff back, because I don't like the
quality or, for example, the reverse light switch for a 1275, if it's the
wrong damn part. Much as I dislike Moss, I'd hate to see them fold.
Competition is good for everybody.
I also patronize The Winner's Circle, TS Imports, Team Triumph (salvage
yard, that has lots of MG stuff, too) and others whose names fail to pop
into my feeble, old mind at the moment.

Obvious rhetorical question #2: I thought you didn't think it was good
to support Moss Motors?
I'm not trying to break your bocci balls, it's just the the harmonic
convergence of the visionary mindshares that ultimately engineer
transparent vortals.
Moss Motors is the last on my list of suppliers to call. (The experience
is about on par with trying to have an intelligent conversation with an
insurance underwriter.) But as much as I don't care for their delivery
system, others do, and so be it.
Many have found better more personable suppliers that offer better
quality parts and service like Just Eds, Worldwide Auto Parts/Peter
Caldwell, Weiner's Circle, TS Imported Parts, Seven Ltd, Britparts on
Long Island, Motorhead, University Motors, and probably a dozen or more
others. And for every vendor mention above there are probably several on
this list that would criticize all or most of the ones mentioned.
Remember the immortal words of Farmer Yassur:
"Long hair, short hair, makes no diffrence once the head's blowed off.
Peave & Love."
