Question RockAuto Parts has any 1 used them

Has anyone used RockAuto Parts I am looking at there radiators & they have the best price of any one that I have found so far. They have them from $72 to $194, AutoZone has a spectra premium/radiator for $247.99 & RockAuto Parts has the same one for $128.79.

I've used RockAuto for many parts for my other cars (haven't needed any, yet, for the Journey, knock on wood). I have a 1976 Cadillac Eldorado that needed all new brakes; pads, rotors, calipers (front and rear), master cylinder, etc.; the only thing I kept was the steel lines). A local shop wanted $3700.00 to do the job, but, I got all the parts at Rock Auto for less than $600 and did it myself in an afternoon. Have gotten numerous rotors and pads through them also for all of my past Dodges and Chryslers. Their rotors are so cheap (not in quality, just price) that I stopped having my rotors turned. It was cheaper in the long run to just order new and replace them; no down time, no waiting on the shop to turn them, no questionable work, just brand new OEM thickness, flat rotors. Have gotten switches, window motors and other parts. Good company, good parts and super prices. I would not hesitate to buy any of their parts. They sell "cheapo" and everything up to "top of the line". Take your pick, they are all good serviceable, quality items. If you aren't going to keep the car long, go "cheap". If the car is going to be around for awhile, then mid-level is good. If like the Eldorado, you are going to keep it for a long time, then even their "top of the line" is priced lower than most other places.

I have used them for other vehicles also. Easy to work with and great return policy. webslave hit it on the head. You can go cheap or top of the line. Either way great pricing if you can wait a few days for the shipping.

Agreed with all written above. I use Rock Auto quite often and have never had an issue with the quality or the company themselves. I usually check rock auto price first then also look at local parts stores and ebay to compare prices. My experience is even though they have really cheap stuff if you want to go that route, the shipping, for me, negates any savings. Example, if I need an outer tie rod, Rock Auto may have one I'm interested in for sal $10. But they charge another $10 to ship it. In cases like that is makes more sense to drive to the local parts store and buy their $20 tie rod. Or maybe ebay has then same one for $15 and free shipping. Just shop around.
