Does anyone know where Rock Auto UK is based?
I'm assuming it's somewhere in London looking at the area code? Or is it just a agency for contact purposes and all the parts are still shipped from the US ? And then you have inport duty, VAT and the obligatory handling charge from the Royal Mail even though you have paid shipping fee to your home address. Sorry if anyone works for the Royal Mail but it's a rip!!!

I think you'll find that there is no base in the UK & parts are shipped from the US. If you look at their web site with the UK web address it takes you to the US site, with a choice of languages & currency to choose from. There's also a thankyou letter on there from "Roy in the UK", which to me indicates he bought from the US. hth

cheers...Nige

Yep I can now confirm that they are only in the US and the Lindon listed number redirects you to the US.
