Hi,

Anyone else dealt with this guy on Trademe?
Looks like he is in Nelson and is called Alistair.
Anyone have an address or contact number?

I have purchased some wiper blades (the whole arm bits) from them and it all went smoothly.

Purchased oil coolers, fans and derale thermo sandwich plate with no issues. He is good to deal with on returns as my friend found when he had an issue with his sandwich plate on his subaru. Fast and easy to deal with.

Ah. These are experiences opposite to what me and my brother have had with Little Red's. Buying from different auctions at different times. Yet to see anything show up, communication has gone cold.
Wish things went straight forward for me as they have for you!

His website now doesn't seem to exist with "infinite redirect" errors too

Sorry to hear about that. To find emails/postal addresses I use freeparking to look up domain name registrant information.

Have you tried ringing them up?

I think this guy operates from a rural property about 10-15 minutes away. My cousin was telling me about some online guy who refused to let him come and look at what he was trying to sell. Didn't sound very legit

I bought race harnesses off this guy a few years back, went smoothly, but I was sure he was based in Christchurch?
