Ever heard the phrase "do what you want but don't get caught"?? Perhaps in this case it should read "do what you want but don't admit to it"!! That's a HUGE admission for a dealer employee to make, on a public forum which is so intimately associated with the marque!!!

MR motor factors is called and MR customer gets charged genuine price for £2.50s worth of brake pads.
SO hands up who has been called to say their car wont be ready....and if by magic...................cars all done SIR................
This is particularly worrying post. You have posted on a public forum that allegedly a dealer is commiting a dishonest act by mis-selling non-genuine Volvo parts as genuine Volvo parts. This is an issue that is now in the public domain and as such raises huge issues.

Who said that you did? You have mentioned "When the DEALER i work for runs out of basic things" in your post.

I did not say Volvo dealer, I repeated the word dealer!
Dealer (two examples in the Oxford Dictionary):
1) A person who deals
2) A trader; one who trades in second-hand goods

What other main dealer would be selling genuine Volvo parts?
