Not just Nine Apart

I don't know the outfit and I'm not really interested in dealing with any business up here...I haven't in ages for car and motorcycle parts and accessories.

But it is fun to rant with a smile...more like, while laughing, all the way to the bank.

I didn't really need 2 new distributor caps and rotors, but what the hell, I am installing new ignition cables, so why not. I'll keep the old caps and rotors as spares.

So for the fun of it, I look up Autoparts Canada where "we ship to Canadian customers only" LOL. Boy, are you guys in the US ever out of luck.

Autoparts Canada...
2 distributor caps and 2 distributor rotors: $341.80

******** AZ...
2 distributor caps and 2 distributor rotors: $161.28

I wonder what I'll do with that extra $180.52

You gotta love this, the list price on that cap up here is $191.97 and in the US, $101.50. I could have sworn the dollar is at par.
