Ordered well before the Farmyard a pair of Iridium plugs for the America thinking I would service the bike with K & N etc.

Well they finally arrived this morning after two weeks and guess what they sent me 8 plugs for £14.70. So of course I have not complained

Maybe you could install a 2nd set where the AI was removed, splice the plug wires and double the power output!

You can't be serious, It doesn't hurt to get a little perk once in a while!

most vendors with a mistake like that will let it slide due to cost of having to ship it back. Let them know what they did and let them they need to arrange for return shipping...see what happens!

Well me being the honest chap have emailed them, so I will await the outcome. Can't help feeling some poor SOB getting his legs slapped, and the small company trying to make a a small profit..

Will let you know the outcome..

I would have done the same. However if they come back and wont pay the shipping, then I say you now have pleny of spares!. It is their responsibility for the return shipping due to being their mistake.

Talking about this Tom?..haha

My opinion is based on the size of the company I guess. If its old Willy down on the corner I'd give them back. If their name shows up first on a google search...I say let THEM call YOU...haha
