Default Re: auto accessory stores

In terms of lubricants, its Repco or Supercheap, generally whoever has the product cheaper at the time.

Other than that, I'm generally shopping at Repco for workshop consumables such as bulk/beater towels, gloves, certain detailing products, lubricants.

I only go to Supercheap if I can't get it elsewhere. I find Supercheap just that, a collection of lackluster items sold cheap. The store is cluttered, and yet most shelves are half stocked. If they actually put the stock on shelves rather than dumped on end displays or stacked 2 meters high in the middle of the main isle, it would much nicer to shop. That's not to mention the staff who have little to no interest in what they are doing............although you could say that about most chain stores like that.

Overall though, I don't buy spare parts at any of them.
