Default Best main dealers for genuine parts?

I'm going to need many many parts for my new S70 T5 shortly, and as FRF are only accepting phone calls nowadays (even Rufe's PM inbox is full so I can't PM him), I was wondering if there are any other main dealers that are keen on genuine parts prices?

I know most local dealers offer 5-10% but I was wondering if there is anyone who is particularly friendly towards VOC members?

Thanks as always

My list is about 40 items long... So it makes sense to send them an email that they can work through, and then send the prices back to me.

Finally managed to get through to them on Friday, and have now emailed them the list of parts Mike did say they were short staffed and that it may take a few days, so fingers crossed I'll have the prices by the end of this coming week so that I can get them ordered - I want to get the car on the road lol.
