Halfrauds strike again
I know it's my own fault for buying it from them but anyway. I got myself a new Kenwood CD receiver a little while ago and when it first went in I was really impressed with the tuner as it picked up everything 
. The CD's played fine despit ethe car being low and stiff . Driving along one day the CD started to skip on even the smallest of bumps. I could even get it to skip by driving over a cats eye 
I got annoyed and switched to the radio to find I could only get Radio 1 and that was if I was at the top of a hill 
. I took th eunit back to the store I got it where a spotty little cunt wired it to the rig and told me it was fine and it was my wiring. I argued this and knew this wasn't right as I plugged the old Kenwood deck back in on the same wiring and it works just fine.
Get a phone call today from said spotty cunt telling me I didn't leave teh faceplate with them and they couldn't deal with the repair without it. I left it on the deck when he took it from me
So thanks a fucking bunch Halfrauds.
I feel better now

I used to be Ripspeed specialist before I opened my own place. The main problem is that much of the time the part time staff know nothing about cars, as they dont own one as the wages are so low! At one point I only had 1 part time member of staff with a car/ even had an interest in cars. Far to many students being taken on that are just there to earn a buck so they can go out and get leathered. Used to drive me up the wall!

No mate was the Stevenage branch. They've had it for a week now and they said 7 to 10 days so if I haven't heard by Friday I'll be chasing them with Mr Wilson
