Part store strike out

None of the big chains here will charge to move parts store to store. Thats ridiculous! However if you dont pre- pay for the item it might get sent back because the employees that show up after shift change do not understand why the parts is there.

Of course I live in a big city with lots of competition and you can throw a stone in any direction to hit a big chain parts store.

Its big business now and they like there profit. Yes its hard to find an employee that knows their stuff but when I do find them I stick with them. I always tell friends to try and order from a store instead of online because if the parts is wrong/ bad/ doesnt fit ( which happens every day) then you just go back to the store and dont have to worry about returning stuff in the mail and losing days.

Im 40 and I remember the Bennett auto supply in my home town. Pretty sure they got bought out by Advanced ( which used to be called Discount). They had a machine shop in the back and It always smelled like car parts. The whole entire counter was full of books to look up parts.
