What am I missing here? Halfords seem to be substantially cheaper in general for almost every oil, regardless of discounts 
Castrol Power 1 Racing 10-40 Opie: £45.82
Castrol Power 1 Racing 10-40 Halfords: £29.59

Not just oils, everything else too.
I almost fell off my chair when I priced up some spark plugs - it was a 50/50 combination of shock and laughing my gonads off. Ended up getting them from an eBay store for half the price.

Unfortunately, from our point of view, Halfords have a really good deal on some Castrol oils and we can't beat their price at the moment. Normally we can though.
By the way, when you say almost every oil, that is quite an exaggeration. I don't go into Halfords often, but from what I remember, the only bike oils that we share brands on are Castrol and Mobil, they don't do Silkolene, Motul, Redline, Amsoil, Shell etc.
Cheers
Tim

True, I only realised the far larger selection of oils you stock on further research, but that's not really my point.
Everyone round here seems to revere Opie Oils as "the cheapest on the internet". Many of your prices seem reasonable, yes, but I still haven't found anything warranting such an acclaimed title.
This isn't a dig, I'm just curious as to peoples obsession with your shop, can you link to any products which cannot be found cheaper elsewhere?

Ok, lets look elsewhere to Halfords then, looking at Motul as an example:
Motul 5100 4T 10W-40 - Opie: £33.50
(https://www.opieoils.co.uk/p-915-motul-5100-4t-10w-40-high-performance-lubricant-for-bikes-technosynthese-ester.aspx)
Motul 5100 4T 10W-40 - Ebay: £24.99
(https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Motul-5100-4T-Performance-Semi-Synthetic-4-Stroke-Motorcycle-Oil-10w-40-/140928725981#vi-content)

Opie are just cheaper on plugs than Halfords for my bikes (£9.67 vs £9.99 iridium, £8.38 vs £8.99 normal for the Honda and £3.06 vs £4.99 normal for the Kwak).
I usually shop around and as posted depending on offers at the time stuff can be had cheaper. That said when I find a reliable supplier I tend to go back. That's why I go back to the likes of wemoto for parts I need to rely on rather than speculating on eBay.

We are far from the cheapest on the net, and have never tried to sell Opie Oils as being so. We have learnt with the internet there is always someone who is cheaper, then there will be someone cheaper then them, and so on. It ends up with companies fighting one another and they make no money, they become busy fools.
We try to offer a better range, and better serivice then our competitors, combined with being generally competitive on price we hope this gives us an edge.
Cheers
Tim.
