OK so we have had pretty bad inflation now for the last 2 1/2 years, but everytime I have to buy anything at the friggin "auto part store" now days, no matter whose name is on the door, IT is Rape! Crazy!
Yea I buy ALL I can at Rock or anywhere else but he local parts emporium!
Example: OK so its a Ford part, but does not matter what make. Example: 66 Ford starter relay. Rock is $8 plus some shipping.... the "other guy" is $30 local pickup. same part, same brand. ITS NUTS!!!!!!!!! :BangHead: :BangHead: :BangHead: :BangHead: :BangHead: :BangHead: :elmer:

I used to work at Midus We bought parts from the parts stores. Even tho they were already marked up we’d mark it up again n add it to the customers bill. Although we’d already giving the customer a quote n we didn’t go over the quoted price of the job but it was crazy that parts are way to high priced today.
When I’m working on my 71 Duster I compare prices on Google before I buy
Happy Moparing
