Never had a problem, but I always pick up my parts in person.

Check the archives (both Gerry & Yahoo) for the litany of complaints and
other less than desitable transactions involving the Parts Place, especially
in mail order.  Yours may have been one of the few exceptions.



Most good ones I've heard have been those with those actually picking their
stuff up in-person.  With that in mind, I will never deal with them on a
mail order or phone basis.

Here is a link to the pdf. Catalog of Vanagon / VW parts at the local "Parts
Place" near my home, North of Detroit.  Before the internet (yes I have owed

my Vanagon since 1987) this place and the dealer were my only sources for
Vanagon Parts.



I haven't see this posted on any of the VW sites, so I felt is worth
sharing.

There are some good tips in the catalog as well.
