The Parts Place in Ill A Good Business?
Hey Guys,
Just got my rear valance from the Parts Place in Ill - I am not that picky BUT what a Poorly made POS! Anyone have any experiences? Thanks, Craig |
I have never heard anything good about them
|
Not a fan
|
I've bought from them. Most items were fine. There expertise on questions relating to your vehicle is hit and miss.
|
I have had pretty good luck but many poor reviews on the web. Owner can be acerbic...

My experience was a quick refund.

I strongly prefer to buy from Ames, NPD, USA Parts Supply, Year One and Inline Tube.

When my 67 Firebird was being restored, I bought door weatherstripping from them and dropped it off at the shop. A few months later when they were finishing up, found out the weatherstripping wouldn't fit as the molded in tabs were all in the wrong place. Looked like it was for a different car although the box label said my year of Firebird/Camaro, PP refused to do anything about it.
Bought some from Ames and it fit perfectly. So, I have a box of new weatherstripping that fits who knows what. |
LOL, these guys have got to be raking in a fortune , how long have they been in business with terrible ratings qnd still manage to exist.......ive gotton a few things from them, didnt bother returning them, have them hanging on my wall just to remind myself never again.
You would probably be better off buying a ford part and trying to make it fit. Rich |
Low on the quality of items & fast to point the finger @ you.

Same

I just bought a set of repro floor mats from them for my 69 bird - they are very nice. And they were less than anywhere else.
|
If the floor mats are correct and a nice reproduction, he didn't make them.
He bought them from someone else who actually makes a decent reproduction item and resold them to you.
We gave up on The Parts Place junk years ago. Many items look good from a distance but aren't sized right or just don't fit. Maybe if you squint and tilt your head a little, they're OK......... NOT! |
Parts place is a big time Repop producer and are responsible for a lot of the parts that everyone sells.
|
I never heard a good thing about that place...

This is the case with many of the reproduction parts. One place makes it, many different vendors sell it. |
