Not that anyone gives a crap but I have bought parts from intercooled 88 as well as many others..
I buy stuff from intercooled and have found him to be very fair with prices and willing to accomodate any part needs I have had
I have also provided him with leads for cars (as I have done to others)
Basically what Intercooled is saying from my quick read is that he pays as a vendor to part out the _ number of cars he parts a year and
what goes for one should go for all if there is a post number which qualifies you as a vendor you're a vendor
On the other hand I distinctly remember going to get a steering column from a certain person in this post years back in NYC...
"Come to the place where the car is early in the morning"
I get there the car is a shell but the steering column I needed is there
I unbolt it and he says
"Oh no I need the column to move the car someone is blocking the driveway
I didnt check on that I was going to have you help me put the car by the hydrant so the PD would take it
but since the driveway is blocked you cant take the column " (read poor planning)
Well anyway I went home empty handed and never got the column from the car scratch him from my parts buying list
My friends that stayed up all night to go with me can I say were the slightest bit pissed off
On the other hand competition is a good thing
But also realize sometimes you dont go for the lowest price all the time ...
I buy tangible goods (economics major look out) not based on price all the time I buy things based on the amount of service and knowledge I get from the seller
If Johnny c has no clue on how to be a seller but he has the lowest price and Joey D is a little more expensive and has the knowledge personally I would go to Joe
also remember sometimes you get what you pay for
