... I buy close to everything in the US.
Drive 1 hour to the UPS store in Ogdensburg. The 27 Cents a liter difference pay for the trip. For the best deal on everything (tool, BP Oil, computer you name it) check Amazon.com ![]() ![]() Check my Shopping in Canada rant; Post 21 of scisor lift or 4 poles lift, again.

I always get quoted outrageous prices from nineapart. Drove there once and left empty handed. Randy at wail tail is a real good guy to deal with.

Nine-apart/Porsch-a-part has long been a source of frustration, wrong parts, high prices and general run-around. I needed a new headlight for a boxster, didn't even hesitate to call and order from Parts Heaven, 5000km away, rather than drive an hour or 2 to Nine-apart. I swore off them years ago.

Every thing that I was looking for was either $40 or $200... which was over price by just about... 1,000 %

I didn't even waste my gas driving to Nine Apart.............Frank is effing brutal. I bought a dash in the US, shipped it and had it recovered in leather, and had it delivered at my door for half what Frank wanted for a used vinyl one....

I've spoke with Frank a couple of times, I never thought it was worth my time to drive out there.
My buddy had an old wore out yellow tag dizzy, Frank was insistent that he toss that junk into his scrap bin. I got my buddy a tad better price than "scrap" for it. To me he's working with pre-internet mentality.

Me: Can you sell a shell and VIN to me.
Frank: Sure, I sell them all the time. Me: How much? Frank: A lot. You can't afford it. That was after he sold me valves with undersized stems and a flasher relay with a cracked PCB inside it. Never. Ever. Again. He's a moron. |
