Auto parts retail stores rant.

Sometimes if you ask for the catalogs they'll have them in the back. They might let you take them also. Before I left I tried ordering all the catalog they would let me. But they didn't order any good ones. But I did get some of the older ones to keep might use them one day.

I competely agree with on this. I used to work for a big parts store and the things you here and see is amazing. You do get lucky to find one person that knows what they are talking about. All they know how to do is ask year, make, model and then there still completely lost. And not a single person knows how to look into a catalog if there live depended on it.

Since I don't work at parts store and I pull in and see a bunch of imports or 4 bangers I'll usually go to next one unless I see an older person or an classic/muscle car outside.
Atleast I still get discount only reason dont order on-line yet. If I find it on-line I can get it for same price and don't have to pay shipping.
