Autoelecau, was nice dealing with you
« on: October 21, 2022, 12:00:55 PM »
Autoelecau from Bairnsdale has been bought out by another company, and their new prices are considerably higher than Auto's. :'( :'( With Autoelecs prices and service it's a hard act to follow

Thats a shame, they were good, a little slow but worth the wait. A competitor may have taken them over??

I thought they sold out to the tools.com group 3 or 4 years ago.

The son's fiance's uncle was the one who established it quite a few years ago, and I only found that out at a family function when my son 8ntrod7ced him as "you know that place where you buy your electrical stuff? Yeh, he just sold it".

The product range changed considerably a year or two ago. From that time not the same company, they went from a place that you could buy name gear at good prices to another purveyor of crap.
