Default Re: Cheap stuff from Halfords

Halfords m/cycle stock is a joke! I keep trying huddersfield and Halifax branches when deals are on castrol power one racing oil, its not a bad price if you have discount card also. They just fill the bike shelves with whatever they have so it looks good. Bike oil filters are worst. Shelves are full at a glance but non of the filters are on right slot, any popular ones are out of stock. Same with oil, the shelves are full but they only had one 10/40 racing in. All others were either rare grades or not racing! Told youngish lad what I thought and he agreed. He said halfords weren't interested in bike stuff! Why advertise in bike press then? More senior guy said its customers fault for moving stuff around!! I then reminded him last 2 visits there were the same. Have they ever done a stockcheck? Those filter boxes look ancient and battered. Joke is halfords have been in financial press about loss in profits, no wonder as its so difficult to actually buy anything useful form them
