No part recieved.
March 4, 2017

I ordered a part on Thursday, April 21,2016 2:21 PM, no part received! Asked for refund in July but have heard nothing since! (yes i have been very patient) Court action next. It isn't the money so much as the being ignored and not able to get in touch with them.

I have had the same experience as those above. I ordered a part on 11 Jan. 2012 and the money was debited from my credit card the same day.
Since I heard nothing more, I mailed on 7 Feb. To ask for an update. I got a reply saying they were having difficulty finding the part and could I send pictures of the old part, which I did immediately.
17 Feb. I checked the web site which now had the part listed as obsolete. So I mailed again to ask them to let me know if they could find the part by the end of the next week.
No reply by 28 Feb. So I asked them to cancel the order and refund my money.
No reply by 5 March so I wrote:
<>
To date still nothing.
On this basis this site cannot be recommended.

I ordered a part on 18 Aug, Spares2go took my money the same day but I have not received anything and my emails are ignored. I checked status again and found the part has now been declared obsolete so now I know I will never receive the part - still no reply or refund. Avoid buying anything from these robbers.

I have spent over 2 month trying to get my hoover parts. They say they have sent them TWICE. I have had to go to the sorting office myself to enquire if their was some ficticious postal error. No postal errors. Finally asked for a refund thats when the replies to my emails stopped. Next step is trading standards and small claims. It may only be a small amount of money, but consider if they do this to hundreds of people per year. An amazing money earning CON!.

Let my experience be a warning: I ordered a control know for my blender; they sent a wrong part, did not fit. Cost: ~$35.- I wrote an email asking for return instructions; to my surprise they immediately replied with: "MODEL NUMBER REQUIRED - Hello again - Yes, we should be able to help, but we will need the full model number from the product."
So I wrote them the model number. Then they asked for a photo. I sent them a photo - and after that, nothing. I've email 4 x and never got an answer back. Clearly their web site had the wrong model associated with the part. But they are ignoring my emails, and I am left with a $ 35.- knob that does not work!

SCAM!

Ordered a timer knob for my dishwasher on 31st May 2011. Payment taken out of my bank account on 1st June 2011. As at 8th August I still haven't received the part. They have no telephone number to contact them only an e-mail which when you send an e-mail to them keeps coming back saying the part is on back order. I've subsequently found out that the part is no longer made and as such they could never get it for me. The amount is only £12.83 but that's not my concern. Other people could be losing much more money to this fraudulent company.

False advertising
September 24, 2020

I paid 10 pounds for a spare part for a husqvarna hedge trimmer. It was sold as a genuine husqvarna spare part but was in fact a cheap copy which arrived in packaging non conform to what was advertised and to what I ordered.
I would never buy from them again. They're not a serious seller. Just ripping people off.

No refund
January 2, 2018

I returned a part unused and in the original packing. I had opened the packing but not used the part. I was refused a refund as they claimed the part was no longer saleable and 'used'. Do not use this company.

I ordered a part for my chest freezer on 24th October 2010. The money left my account on the 25th. At this time the part was showing as available. A few days later it was obsolete. I was then promised that the part was available and on order with their supplier, but the suddenly it wasnt available and I was promised a refund. I am still waiting 4 weeks later and they are now ignoring my e-mails. I wouldnt touch this site with a bargepole!

Iffy
May 28, 2016

It was some time ago I ordered a cooker part which it appears they didn't have in
Stock so they sent me a part which retails at half the price which they thought might
Do, no mention of refunding the price difference, I got a refund and eventually got
A refund for the return postage costs ( had to jump through hoops)

I ordered washing machine parts, billed £28,39 and £53,95. After a week I had not recieved any shipping information and asked for an update. The reply was "We have been assured by the manufacturer that a supply of these items is in transit to us". After 2 weeks they no longer replied to any email and I've yet to recieve anything. I got on the website and intered my order number, I had both a P and an N order number, both came up blank and yet they've taken my money.
Update.
I had trouble getting hold of anyone on email, I posted here and spares2go emailed immediately, they had the parts shipped within a week. Hassle would have been avoided if they had replied to email and not charged your card until the items were in stock which they were not apparently.

After reading some of the reviews it looks like if I ever recieve anything it will be the wrong parts. Charging thru PayPal should be a warning as they have to pay PayPal a commission and it makes it more difficult for the customer to get their money returned. But not impossible.

We are very disappointed and surprised this customer has chosen to criticise us publicly like this - we spent a good deal of time and research to obtain these items for him - what happened to good old fashioned gratitude?

Ordered belts for my mother's vacuum cleaner on 6th Aug. Money taken out of my account on 7th Aug. Nothing by 16th Aug. Emailed them, they replied they were being sent. Nothing came. Showed on site as being on backorder. Emailed again. No reply, no belts. Emailed on 24th Aug cancelling order, ordered and got them within 2 days from buyspares, emailed again 2nd Sept. Still no reply and no belts. Email from them 10th Sept saying sent today. Emailed them but no reply. Belts arrived 15th Sept. I now have 6 belts for an old Vax R19. Anyone want one? Never use this company!
