If the parts had to come from MB, Rusty was charged that much. Recently I ordered about a dozen parts that were OE (not OEM). Six injector lines and all the rubber padding and clips for those lines as well. Each injector line came in its own FedEx box, the rubber pads came in another, and each different type of the plastic clamp came in their own box (clamp 4 lines, 3 lines, etc). Think I ended up with about 11 boxes. That was a $10 shipping fee. IIRC, Rusty lost a connection for OE parts (from somebody who was competent) and now the only place he can find for OE parts is the incompetent fools he uses now. My nearest dealership is 2 hours away though so I'm stuck with that situation (and I imagine Rusty wants a better contact as well).
