No.
I suggest Gary @ http://www.buyeuroparts.com/
I have placed two orders with him in the last week. Both were priced very
competitively and arrived on time and correct as ordered. I received
tracking information within 24 hours of placing my order and was not
charged until the parts shipped.
Probably the best thing about Gary is his willingness to tell you he can't
or won't get an aftermarket part due to quality issues. One of the big
problem with the mass-market parts retailers is their propensity to use
low quality high margin (for them) parts from Asian supplier, such as URO.
This is why you see such "deals" from these places. Ask them who the part
manufacturer is and you'll understand why.
A good example of his willingness to forego a sale due to quality would be
when I talked to him about front brake rotors for my S500. I can get OE
rotors for $85/each from my local dealer. He can get OEM rotors for
slightly less, maybe $75/each. They are most likely the same, but
understanding that I want guaranteed quality on a brake or suspension
part, he agreed that the OE part was the better way to go in my case.
