MG MGA - Scarborough Faire Delight!

Over the past couple of years while visiting this site, I have read comments both good and bad about the various trade suppliers. I have purchased from them all and just recently received an order from Scarborough Faire. I feel that the negative comments are important critique, but that positive ones should also be given when earned.
I must say that I continued to be pleased and surprised by the level of service and care that I receive from Scarborough. This particular order was received with only a couple of minor (very minor and inconsequential) backorders and was packed with more care than I have ever experienced from any supplier.
I called immediately to thank Cecelia and her associates. I have always been treated with respect and kindness by everyone from Scarborough and this time was no exception. Their knowledge of the cars and their willingness to share that, is wonderful but the follow through in the sale of the parts, is even better. We are lucky to have all of the suppliers that are part of our hobby, but we are truly blessed to have the personal attention that Scarborough gives.
No this is not a paid advertisement and I am not related, just pleased that I have been made to feel like a customer!
THANK YOU SCARBOROUGH!!!!

I concur with James. Cecelia has always given me all the time required...and then some, whenever I call with a question. And, I have always received good parts at reasonable prices. And the few, very few, times there was a problem, she was more than willing to do whatever necessary to make it right. Another supplier I've had good luck with is Martin MacGregor. He's not real fast at getting back to your but the parts are most often worth the wait. Earlier threads have stated that his trunk seal is the best fitting one out there. I'll find out soon. Thanks to them both for helping us keep our "A" on the road.

I agree with James. I have resored my A Coupe with most parts from SF. I'd say that over 95% of the parts were perfect with just a few parts that were not the best fit or quality. Cecelia had no problem taking them back and exchanging them.

BTW Robert I think you will be happy with the trunk seal from McGregor, the one from SF was the right size but too firm on my boot lid, one of the other 5%.

I'm a big fan of SF.

Agree - I've had good experience with SF over the past 15 years. Maybe because I'm just a little guy, I've gotten enough poor customer service from Moss that I don't buy from them anymore.

Cecelia in my book is Queen of the MGA's for parts, helping us, talking to us and following up with back orders. Tom
