Default Rockauto.com?

have any of you guys used this site before? needing to get parts for a car that my parents just bought and the prices are cheaper than advanced and autozone. Is it a reliable site and should i use them?

They are great you just have to watch the shipping charges on larger orders, before you buy google for a coupon and you'll save 5%.

I've found that advance has similar prices if you order online and use a 20% off coupon, plus you can usually pick it up in store if you need it right away.

A lot of us over in the 3rd gen dak section use the site no issues. Very reliable and trustworthy, you just have to make sure that after shipping the parts are going to be cheaper than your local parts store, which usually are. I give rockauto two thumbs up

Living up here in Canada we have quite a few vehicles on the go and we use Rock Auto most of the time because sometimes the parts arrive by courier within 3 days and even after counting in the shipping their prices are still cheaper than our local parts stores. Two Thumbs up.

I like them alot. I signed up for e mail notices and get "close out" notices for parts on a specific vehicle, very handy. I stockpile certain parts this way.

I've used them alot with no problems.
Advance Auto has a $50.00 off $150.00 order coupon that I used a little over a week ago, it was "VISA" and came with free shipping.

edit:
I also used a Mastercard, so you don't really have to pay with Visa.

ordered the part last night. We where lookin for a passenger side mirror, advance had it for 80-100 and about the same from autozone. Rockauto had it for 38 after shipping and handling, so i think its a good deal, the parts for a 2000 intrepid. could have went to a u pull it but the rockauto part comes with all the wiring and who ever had the car before decided to cut the wire and remove the whole mirror because they didnt wan to fix it, they did the same thing with the front door speakers
