Do these people have to be certified or anything to get that job?



Do they get discounted prices cheaper or even with mazdacomp prices?

I smell mischief. No I don't think there is any prerequisites you have to meet, dude. GET THE JOBBER AND GET ME CHEEEEEP PARTS!!!!!!!!!

Most of the time they do not have to be certified but some are...

and yes the discount is rather big....

I work for dealerships....



Say a part lists for 68.93 thats what you the average consumer pays

But the part usually costs 45.38

But then they get a discount on that so that part could go as low as 28 bucks.... lol





Did this when I had to buy switched for my power windows....

part listed at 36 dollars I picked them up for 13 bucks each... good thing I had to buy 5 of them... lol



But anyway there ya go.......



Oh by the way for those St.louis members i am going to look into this.... but I maybe able to get deals on turbos and intercoolers and such.... so give me sometime and maybe by next week I will know.

Darn wish I had money now!

lol yeah I got to look into it come friday and find out what I can get them for etc... then let you guys know... pass the savings along... it may be a honda store but turbos are pretty much universal! We also deal with the big companies.....

yeah i work for an electric product distributor and i was amazed too see the profit they make.... 45 amp fuse cost = 2.97 and we sell it for 8.73



we need a contact who works for mazda

Yes but I have a friend who works the parts dept at mazda,I was telling him the prices that you can get rotor housings from mazdacomp and he was saying that his price isnt even that low....same with the gaskets

Twin89Stangs 06-19-2002 03:19 PM

sometimes aftermarket prices will be lower than even a factory part at its lowest possible price.....



it happens... but not with everything.....
