ParticipantDo none of you guys use TMS for popular spares?
I’ve done a search of the forum and there’s only 3 references, all by Penguin. That’s no surprise, coz they’re both in the soviet republic of tykeland.
TMS only keep popular spares in, but I just went though the mystery shopper list, and they anialated all those prices!

That’s them!
I don’t think they’re Hoover agents though.
The reps has just been in, and caught me on the forum. He says he will get one of the ‘telephone monkeys’ to join the site, coz, “he sits around doing jack **** all day at the moment”.

I think there HQ’s are Sheffield, Leeds, Manchester and London (allegidly). They never have any spares in stock, but if they do, they sell them at charity prices.
They also have a seemingly endless supply of graded Merloni stuff.

TMS, head office in Sheffield, depots Leeds + Newcastle. Formerly owned by the Lyon family, now in the hands of venture capitalists. Hold spares agencies for Hoover, The Indesit Company Group, Distri and Bosch, as well as the usual pattern stuff. Have recently taken on Qualtex distribution as well.
No on line service, but cheap for “the regular stuff”.

Wow, that’s the best summary I’ve ever read. Nice 1 Penguin!
The rep reckoned they had a depo in London. Sounds like porkies to me!
