Default what a price!

is all i can say about this.. from rockauto.com i just ordered 16 oem plugs, an ac delco wire kit and an egr valve and it cost me a grand total of $191 and thats with 75 bucks of shipping to edmonton alberta.

a price like that is unheard of around here and Egr Valve is usually around 100 bucks... 45 with my mechanics price.. and well for plugs you just hope they come on sale at good old canadian tire.

I'll let you know how long it takes to when i recieve them ..its supposed to be Fedex ground U.S so not sure how long its gonna take.

I've used rockauto often. Good prices. The oem plugs I ordered were 1.73 each.
I got the EGR valve at autozone for 48 bucks.

Yeah spark plugs cost me $225 at parts source (not copper) so should have waited but was in the middle of a job and needed them now and went iridium which I think are like $5 a piece in the USA.

I had a feeling mentioning the word copper I would get a response. All I know is I get 18.8 MPG Cdn now vs the 17 when I was stock running copper and don't have to scrub my tailpipes with SOS anymore to get the black soot off, but yeah Man that seems to be a common opinion on this forum, for which I respect and I may just look into them again but don't think they make them in the cooler ranges I prefer? Not sure, i could wrong about that too.

Ive ordered from Rockauto also and they were always THE BEST priced. The key is if you can plan it ahead and order or wait for the parts so you dont have to buy locally and get financially raped.
