Title: rock auto closeout
Post by: 85cougar on September 29, 2010, 06:12:05 PM
This link was emailed from rock auto with some pretty good prices on closeout parts. They specified 85 in the email but these may fit other years as well. http://www.rockauto.com/RSS/vehiclefeeds.php?carcode=1198504&m=wc&l=en&html=true

Wow those are some really good deals!

I got the same email today but for our 08 Malibu.  Nothing near as cool as a $6 set of brake pads or brake hoses under $8. :(  All I get cheap are wire harness connectors and internal transmission parts...

Careful on the closeouts.  I used to work there.  They come from some shiznitty warehouses in Texas and California, where they don't bother to pack shiznit right or even bother to see if parts are in the boxes.  I got quite a few calls about that.  Wrong parts in right box, empty box, damaged in shipping due to the shipper not packaging things right..... it was a nightmare.    There are two main warehouses that get all the unsold parts from others, and then try to make a quick buck or two selling them at a deep discount. 


Just an FYI, all that glitters is not gold.
