RE: [Chevelle-list] Summit vs. Jeg's
While I still like Summit, I bought two 750 Holleys, and wanted the shiny finish. When they arrived I immediately shipped them to BDS for dyno-tuning. They cam back and I took them to my mechanic friend...We never opened the boxs. We both got very busy so the carbs sat there for months. When we finally opened the boxes...I was surprised they were the old gold style not the shiny silver ones I thought I bought! I called Summit, they said they would take them back, but because it had been so long( 8 or 9 months) since I bought them, they would charge me a 15% re-stocking fee. I was a bit pissed, because I ordered the silver 750's. Well...I checked about the cost and time it would take to re-dyno some new carbs, the cost and mostly the backlog told me to suck it up! I have had so few problems, and it may be the sales rep I spoke to!

RE: [Chevelle-list] Summit vs. Jeg's
I have bought from both, but Summit seemed more aggressive in a positive way in helping me many times. I may have been lucky getting a better salesman each time, but Jegs has done little for me! The only time I have had a problem with Summit, was due to pricing. I called Flaming River recently about a paint-able steering column for my 72, plus a new 12:1 power steering unit. I told Summit they were a bit higher, than buying it direct from F.R.. They said they would do a price check and could meet or beat F.R.. Summit came back online and said they could not meet or beat their price. SURPRISING to me! So….I bought the parts direct from F.R..It’s unusual to see a manufacturer price something lower than their dealer. The price I got from F.R. was nothing special…it was the one out of the website…FIGURE!?

RE: [Chevelle-list] Summit vs. Jeg's
I don't have a problem with Jeg's, I order from them when Summit doesn't have what I want in stock. For some reason I always went to Summit first. When I was told sorry, that's when a bell went off and I realized it's the little things that Summit does for me that keeps me going back to them first.

Like you, I have on several occasions remembered things I forgot after the order, but I just assumed once the order was in, it was too late. That's good to know. What I do is visit the Summit site quite regularly, and as I think of things, I just put it in my basket. About once a week, I'll go back and process the order. I hope all this buying slows down as the car comes together... I find Jeg's website a bit cumbersome to navigate, so I have never bought anything there.

Re: [Chevelle-list] Summit vs. Jeg's
I purchase from both and usually only buy from Jeg's if Summit doesn't carry or is backordered on a part. Summit is just down the road and several of my friends work in customer service.

RE: [Chevelle-list] Summit vs. Jeg's
I have use them both, Too many times according to my Wife. As with any sizable Co. with 1000's of transaction a day, Mistakes WILL happen. Both Co's have solved any of my issues 1,000,000%, have that be defective part ,order by mistake, wrong item shipped or just don't want or need it . Was the truck loaded and gone? Was it a lazy sales Rep ? Or was he being honest and they did in fact pack it and ship that days orders that night ? I have received shipments on occasion from both @ regular shipping, the next Day..

A couple of times in the past when I placed internet orders from Summit, the next morning I realized I forgot something. I'd call Summit, talk to the customer service rep and ask if I can add the forgotten items. "No problem" the rep would say, "what part numbers do you need to add?" Sure enough my original order would arrive in one box along with a second box containing the forgotten items with no extra "handling" charge. Last night I ordered some stuff from Jeg's and sure enough I woke up this morning and damn it if I didn't forget something. I called Jeg's a few minutes ago and the rep says "Sorry, the box is already loaded on the truck for shipping."

Re: [Chevelle-list] Summit vs. Jeg's
Hi Herb, I have also pretty much totally switched from Jeg's to Summit. I particularly like their "no questions asked" return policy. Why, I even successfully returned a cam after I had installed it and found the resulting piston-to -valve clearance to be too close.

Re: [Chevelle-list] Summit vs. Jeg's
That's a helpful observation Herb. Like you, I have on several occasions remembered things I forgot after the order, but I just assumed once the order was in, it was too late. That's good to know. What I do is visit the Summit site quite regularly, and as I think of things, I just put it in my basket. About once a week, I'll go back and process the order. I hope all this buying slows down as the car comes together... I find Jeg's website a bit cumbersome to navigate, so I have never bought anything there.
