Thanks!
You just reminded me to go look to see what else they may have. I keep thinking I have put in my last order, but something else may pop up on their website I might want to have around just in case.

I wish they would filter their page to show what they actually have in stock.
I don't need anything specific, but so many items as listed as out of stock it's hard to just view what they have. Unless I'm missing something.

Put a number of small things in my cart that were in stock on the site and got the conformation email but by the time they sent the final billing email all items had been deleted .

I don't need anything either, but 2 weeks ago I started going thru their website. Like Joe said, it is a very futile waste of time. To hear EBEAR relate his experience makes me not waste my time looking for bargains.

If they had a sale on shipping it might have been worth the effort. Many businesses with offer free shipping over a said amount. I've made orders in the thousands from Midfifty to be slapped with shipping amounts that almost equal the order so cancelled and went elsewhere..

Yes, it's frustrating. I ordered a bunch of stuff only to find that over 1/2 was out of stock. I think any of their "good stuff" was bought by competitors.

Yes have to look at the Sale item list, however, it not completely up to date, i just order a bunch of items I though was worth having and got an email from Rachel say they were out. Agree the shipping costs a bit high, but with the discount on parts it still not bad Rockauto charger higher shipping rates. We are all use to the Amazon free shipping.
