Welcome Rock Auto!

[Frank]

Please take this time to welcome Rock Auto, a long time supplier of Mopar parts for our cars!

[Tony Hanna]

Just noticed the banner. I take it this is a recent development?

[minigts]

Excellent! Glad to see a commonly used supplier as a vendor now! Welcome to the forum.

[Frank]

As of a few minutes ago!

Nice! I don't think I've ordered anything from them yet, but John deals with them pretty often and he's really impressed with their prices.

Good to hear!

Love the website, always one of the first places I look for parts

I've been a Rock Auto customer for a few years, glad to see them here. All my experiences have been positive, good parts at a good price, fast shipping and I've always gotten exactly what I've expected.

[MopàrBCN]

Well! Glad to see you guys on the board. I have been customer and promoter for you guys in Spain for years now.

- On that note, ever since shipping is predominantly with FEDEX the customer satisfaction on this side of the ocean has dropped significantly!!!

It's not the shipping cost as such, it's the unpredictability of when they decide to clear customs and charge for the clearing service or not.

With USPS you always know, if the value is bigger then X then you have to pay, if it stays under that X it arrives hussle free at your door step. So this is predictable.

Meanwhile with Fedex: While I did not have to pay a penny for my break booster and other stuff in a 300$ order, they charged me 30 something Euros for clearing a 1 Euro and something tax bill for a 6$ Check Valve. Sorry, had to let this out.....

But yes, good news you are here. Hope that helps to boost the part availability for our cars!!

I just saw the banner, pretty cool,

We have the same problems in Canada here with UPS and Fedex from the US, exorbitant "customs presentation" fees. So if they're using USPS here still I'll have to check them out, if not

Kickass!

Rockauto is da domb! They saved me a bunch when I had to get a new gas tank and sender for my work van.

Hi,

ok, I mean if I have to pay taxes, this is nobody elses fault but the government. That happens as well with USPS over here. BUT, the difference is, with USPS I can decide if I take the 20 minutes to go there myself and clear it (thus pay what I owe), or let a handling company do it. With FEDEX they don't give you this option. They provide their "service" unasked and charge you for this on top of what your tax dues are. This is the annoying thing.

While if customs would decide to clear something I could go there and argue if I have an argument (and I did in the past with success). At the end though customs would only charge me for what is due, and this is acceptable. Not like Fedex putting your handling charge on top. And then if you don't have the cash at hand you have to wait another day if they arrive again......

Sweet! Welcome aboard

[Directconnection]

I spent about $500+ with them last year on all sorts of odd stuff! Best deals around, and even with shipping, it still comes out waaay cheaper that any local parts stores near me. Also, their shipping was fast! I am in maine and ordered a gas tank and straps for my shadow... it was on my steps 2 days later!

[1FastCSX289]

Sweet. Rockauto is pretty good. Which reminds me I have a radiator I have to return to them. Crap.

[cordes]

This is good news indeed. I have used them several times with good results. The only thing cheaper I have found is the JY.

[ikknown]

love me some rockauto!

[looneytuner]

Hurray for Rock
