Shysters

Friendly service right off the bat, with people falling over you trying to source the right part and trying to make you feel like you are their top priority. That's where the niceness ends.

I ordered a driver side door lock for my Opel Corsa C and was quite happy when they told me that they had found one. They then sent a picture of the part at its best possible angle and everything.

Received the part a few days later and at first appearance it seemed to be ok—a little dirty—but ok. Tested it with a multimeter, a bench supply and in the car and (you guessed it) it was completely dead. Sent a message back asking what can be done about this and why are items not tested before being shelved or sent out. The response I got was that they have too many parts to test each one individually (which makes monetary sense) however there are many other reputable s****yards who actually do make the effort to test their parts to make sure that they are fit for resale.

Be it as it may, they offered to send another one which was confirmed to be the correct part several times. Received the item and was in disbelief. The second one they sent is for a completely different door and doesn't even have the same part number that I specified. Furthermore the part is so badly damaged and bent that the locking mechanism doesn't even budge. I sent another message back stating my displeasure and received a rather defensive (almost threatening) voice note telling me to send both the parts back and they might refund me.

I refuse to send the parts back because, A: The parts are junk and can't even be sold for s**** metal, and B: I don't want someone else to receive the same broken **** that I did, all while these people profit off their customers' frustration. The ones I got have probably been in circulation for a while.

So I'm now R400 down (luckily only R400, others have been taken for much more) and still without a working lock.

Buyer beware—deal with this shady business at your own risk.
