It can work out for you when they send the wrong or rubbish items as they tell you to chuck them and send you the correct one or a full refund.. no quibbles. So far I have had a set of CB350K Carbs, 500K0 seat base, CB350 camshaft,  CB350 battery box etc. All for free because of their mistakes. Their pricing is all over the place.  Like £50 for really good set of  750 barrels and pistons all nicely marked up and an almost pristine 500/4 front wheel for £50 but then they will charge silly money for a small item or rubbish part (like that seat in this post  and the one I bought that had an old mouse nest in the foam.

Best thing with DK is take a day off, don't go on some sh*tty little day out to some stately home blah blah... Have a day out at DK .. it's a really great experience and trust me the guys there are really nice to deal with

I can reinforce Ash's suggestion that a visit to DK's 'Emporium' is a good investment of your time. I visited last year (when I was on a house hunting mission oop north) and was amazed at the amount and diversity of stuff they have.

As far as their prices go......they sell and break so many bikes/ parts that they must have a good idea what the market will stand based on recent performance and exclusivity/ commonality/ availability and whilst buyers have E Bay and Couriers at their fingertips, prices will inevitably creep upwards through the auction process. That's Life I'm afraid.

If your Family (i.e, SWMBO) are dead set against a visit to DK....suggest that they go to Alton towers or Trentham gardens whilst you 'pop' over to DK's for 'an hour - or two'. Sorted.
