Re: What is the name of your roles

Re: MTA products going downhill fast?

I had positive experience with them sorting through my orders when they stuff up. But though the supplier are in Edbuy, the quality and prices I find are not cheap, as compared to other suppliers. pays to shop around.

Re: MTA products going downhill fast?

Find that some supplier overcharged on some wares. It pays to shop around with all suppliers and ask for a discount.

Re: MTA products going downhill fast?

Mta has got some good expensive brand name product such as IEC and German brand and also some cheap Chinese stuff .Depends on your budget, but better off long run to invest in quality wares, rather keep replacing them.Sometime you can buy meters from Bunning. Much cheaper.

Re: MTA products going downhill fast?

I agree the quality has gone and they send the wrong items as well. Just like Serrata used to do. LOL . One would assume since taking over, one would improve the quality and service.

Good morning CC
I am in nsw Parramatta. Most of the transformers are in good working order. We diddnt need them only because we are able to replace with the new ones otherwise they are still good.
