    New GSF Website

    Does anybody else find the new site (once you eventually register) a real PITA to use?

    The old one was a doddle

      You can't even choose your own user name. I don't use it now either, crap compared to the old one. ECP or go into the store...

        No wonder everyone I know is switching to ECP!

          They've never been helpful instore for me anyway.

          If I provide an audi or bosch part number they just tend to say, sorry there is no GSF part number for that. They can't or wont try to source one for you.

              Yep the new website is utter toss, but i have totally lost faith in GSF parts, they are all Chinese knock-offs

              To be fair I always found the Birmingham main depot staff really helpful, all the satelite branches seem to be full of ******s though :corey:

                To be fair to my local (Plymouth) branch, in store I find them to be very helpful and I much prefer the in store experience at GSF to ECP. They always have plenty of counter staff so I never have to wait. At ECP there is usually only one staff member on the counter but what seems like hundreds sat at desks behind the window!! However the ECP website is far superior and very easy to use.

                A great deal of parts they sell are indeed cheap chinese rubbish but this is the same with both stores. I find that GSF are more helpful when I ask about the brand of a part and they often offer a better quality but obviously more expensive option.
