My main concern is for newer members. The advertising appears a bit sensationalised, quoting an amount of saving, but not actually making the price immediatey obvious. Newer members not quite aware of the actual savings to be had from GM, and on TC, might feel that the prices for omega oils are better at Opie. Which is not the case.
Experienced members, such as those posting on this thread will obviously be aware what to buy, and where to buy according to their needs.
If Opie where to be a recomended supplier for oil, I would expect a ref to GM and tc to be at the top of the list firstly... for example.
For omega owners, they are not a recomended supplier for oil. GM oil on tc are obviously.
Dex 3 however. Fair enough, even if it's worth paying a few quid extra to save time looking for cheaper suppliers. Hardly a regular buy anyway. Which concerns me that opies presence as advertising on posts at will, which no other supplier is aloud to do afaict, might give the impression they are more cost effective than the are and more recomended than they are.
They do not list pas fluid. The engine oils are massively expensive compared to GM/TC. Titan 4000 being the only relevance. Yet they are allowed to advertise freely, where andyc was not. (although Andys situation has now been rectified as we know)
In short, the posted adverts appear misleading and generally over sensationalised, given the minimal relevant products to the omega. A secondary mention in recomended however, would seem more appropriate perhaps...? Maybe?
