I drive right past BH mercedes twice a day so it is a natural option and
making two trips is easy.
Of course aftermarket is often best, so it doesnt help for that stuff.
Tom Hanson gives a nice wholesale discount and ships of course and is very
responsive.

I haven't tried that, but in the past when I've gone in to our local
dealer, which is a long drive on the other side of town, their deal was pay
in advance and then make another trip later when the parts arrive to pick
them up.
No thanks is my reply to that deal, my time is more valuable, I'd
Mine did. "We can't match that price!".

Just print out the part list with all the prices from whatever website you
like, walk into the dealer and tell them you want these parts and will they
match the price. They arent going to say no.

If the online guys had 200 sales in your state last year, you're paying taxes.

I've been buying from the first on that list, parts hub, and they've been
pretty good about answering questions via email and helping me track down

He’s dead, I tell you. Not only that, parts from him were rarely a deal. That
was why I quit buying from him. Between the minor difference in price from
