I visited the store at 13:50 On sat 30/01/21 it closed at 14:00 the server said he cant serve me without a face mask which I totally understand but I had a face covering on so I didnt see the problem. I explained I wont have time to go buy a mask and get back there and I desperately needed my parts and drove 30 minutes to get to the store but he was very rude without offering an alternative. So I went and got a mask and got back to the store by 13:57 but they closed the doors and ignored me when I was knocking and ringing the bell. I was very upset these are hard enough times without

Always helpful, nothing is an issue. There is a very nice man with long blonde flowing locks of hair that helps me most of the time. Great

I found the staff to be efficient and very helpful. In my case there was one part the website was not clear about. The man who served me looked at the drawing from the car manufacturer with me and cross checked with their computer to make sure I was getting the right part. He also offered to carry things to my car. The website is a bit like a sofa shop with high list prices and almost perpetual big discounts to end up with reasonable prices.

Great service from friendly staff. They had all the parts I needed in stock. I had been to the other car parts places in the area and GSF were by far the cheapest. Will be going back there for any of my car parts needs in the future.
