Ok, last time I went there I got screwed on pricing. Everyone says I need to talk to Paul; that's who I talked to. Whose name(s) do I need to mention to get a better deal on some parts?

The things I'm looking for:
front endlink x 2
driverside strut mount
 
i can try and borrow a used car tomorow and go across the street to get the pricing on the stuff i will let you know
 
Those guys are a pain sometimes. Got a good deal one day on some seats and exhaust and then I get prices that are close to what I could get stuff for new. I think that they forget their stuff IS used sometimes and just try to lowball the dealer prices.

Been in there they check the dealer listing as soon as you ask about any part. I got the deal from Bob who is the other guy that works there. Dealing with paul for the first time, he's pretty much run off the mill. Bob will give a fair price if you do your homework. For example i was pricing out struts and priced out the average for new struts (non-dealer) and then calced the price I would expect based on the mileage the car has run on them, 70K being 0. His price on a 20K car was right around what I had down. If it's over and you give him the spcheal he will work with you.

Going there on thursday.
 
Well Bob and I went at it the other day. He was just in a bad mood I think. I made the mistake of talking to one of them about some items and the other on a different day about some of the same stuff and some other crap i needed.

So I called at 10:30 in the morning, told him I would be there around 12 to see what they have. He was like fine. I get there and Bob is like "you talked to Paul about your mouldings so you have to wait for him." So I did. Then in front of me he is like "Paul, Turner is waiting for you. He tried to tell me that he had talked to me about the mouldings." As if I was trying to pull one over on him.

I'm like, does it matter who the hell I talked to. Can I please buy your crap. So I said, "Actually I talked to both of you about the mouldings." and then Bob said some other s*** and Paul seeing that all I was trying to do was be a patron told Bob to chill and then gave me a good deal on what I needed.

So, Long story short I think Paul has a bit more patience than bob. I still think Bob will give you a good deal if you do your homework but sometimes you don't exactly know what you want and want to bounce s*** off some people.

anyway that is my 2 cents.
