Has anyone used them for car parts before.

I see there adds during the power block on spike and from what it looks like there prices are pretty good.

just don't know about customer service and if its really to good to be true.

I use them when I want a part for a planned, non emergency item.

I bought all the parts to rebuild the front end and brakes for my truck. Saved about 40% over the best pricing from Autozone, Advanced, or Napa.

Easy browsing, a wide selection of parts, and in most cases a variety of vendors and pricing. Great service, fast shipping. I highly recommend them.

I got some replacement headlights for my van there. They were a fraction of the price of GM replacements and came with bulbs. They shipped them out as quick as could be expected. No doubt they get their parts from Asia somewhere.

My suspension parts were top of the line Moog, and the brake parts were Bendix.

I could have saved more by ordering some lower priced items that were also available.

Just watch out for where the parts are coming from, as some of their sources incur huge shipping costs that make it not worthwhile. They usually have several options, both "name" brands and "off" brands. Usually it won't be an issue, just something you might see pop up once in a while on there.

I bought several exhaust pipe peices from them, good name brand quality, great prices and most other places didn't have all of the peices I needed. I would recomend them.

If you need parts for German or Sweedish cars, Pelican Parts has been great to deal with.

RockAuto has top notch service, I use them all the time. Compare prices locally, they are not always the cheapest. Some of my suppliers will price match certain items, ask around.

I've use them a number of times.
Stellar service each time. Many different parts, too numerous to mention.
They have a variety of the same part from different sources. Domestic and "over there".
They are great if you don't need the part right away. Their website is very easy to use. I even use it as a resource when working on vehicles. Good parts blow outs...

I've used them professionally to help customers on a budget who could wait and personally. Great service, just make sure your stuff is all at the same warehouse.
