smilinjack 0 Posted November 19, 2011 I know it's stating the obvious, but you see I'm a bit old fashioned. Been to Halfrauds a couple of times for a Haynes manual for my VFR Vtec. Checked stock on the website-OK. But when I got there it was of course the old VFR manual, despite that one having a different stock code so I took a look on Amazon. Long story short, I got the correct manual, well actually the updated one which covers models up to 2009, delivered to my door for £17 odd. Compare that to the £24.99 Halfrauds wanted for being unable to supply me, and you have to wonder what the future is for shops. But TBH, I still feel a bit guilty and slightly soiled for using t'internet. When all the shops are gone you know we'll miss them. It's a bit of a dichotomy doncha think?
