Greetings One and All

On the trail of the new water pump &c.

Tell me if you can of the link between these two pages ...

https://www.land-rover-parts-shop.co...0/6/10/14/1537

http://www.mansfieldmotorsltd.co.uk/.../0/6/11/13/816

I wonder if this is collaboration, collusion, plagiarism or fraud? In any
event I now don't feel as though I can place my trust in either site
without some reasonable explanation.

If the product pages above aren't enough, then consider these pages ....

https://www.land-rover-parts-shop.com/shop/en/

http://www.mansfieldmotorsltd.co.uk/shop/en/

Perhaps someone here as previous experience of either company?

Probably using the same "shopping cart" back-end software. I see
it all the time. Looks like a cheap-n-nasty CGI script or something
that you can pick up for free (or very cheaply at least) off the
web and just add your own products to the system. If you look around a
lot of online "shops" you will see many that appear the same as they
just run the same software. Could be that some web designer dude has
gone round to both these places and offered to setup their
websites - hence why they look similar.

In fact, being a real sad (EX)techie, I just took a look at the DNS
records and found that LRPS.com is pointing to the same server that
MM does, and it appears that they are both run through "muddyweb.com"
who look like they specialise in website design for LR sites, which
would explain why the two sites look similar!

I wouldn't let it put you off of these places.

I've used MM before and I don't recall having any problems.

And in fact both domains are registered to the same company.

I clocked they had the same name servers, but they appear to be hosted in
separate data centres.

Went back to basics and contacted Craddocks (for all the usual warm
fuzzies).

Just a little disappointed that they appear to have become a true dot.com
outfit - not in stock, that'll be 2/3 days sir.

Distribution efficiencies are still lagging way behind my expectations and
holding back this interweb thingy. How difficult is it to have items
despatched from their actual location to the desired destination?

oh well. maybe there'll be a nice warm snap when I get the parts.

You could try elsewhere (hint).

well, I did leave enough hints lying around in this group that I was in
the market. got the impression at one point that I was having one of
those invisible moments - you know the type of thing ... white 110 on a
well lit street and the daft buggers just don't seem to notice you are
there - sometimes have those on the bike I know, but in a /white/ 110? :)

Given you both drive white 110's I feel neither of you can see it other...
perhaphs some smoke may help.
