[QUOTE="seventyeight, post: 229536, member: 6095"] This is good advice but .....here is my take: 1. At least 6-8 times per year Corvette central and Top Flight has 10-15% off sitewide and if you see free shipping, click on details and it will say "US Customers free shipping CDN customers 10% off order." 2. The three best companies for Parts/quality/price are imo as follows: - Price/Discounts/Sales/fast shipping = [B]Corvette central[/B] -Instock/Inhouse manufacturing(door panels etc)/discounts = [B]Top flight[/B] -Quality/Restoration/diagrams/advice = [B]Paragon[/B] (don't look for discounts unless $5K and up) Why I like Corvette Central: Good quality parts, fast shipping (UPS), price at checkout is what you pay! plus (using Visa/MasterCard) 34% so if you subtract 10-15% Sale from exchange just add 20% to get the CDN price, to your door within 5 days or less in my experience). **Side note to Corvette Central: 2 weeks after my last shipment, I received a $30 credit?, the reason was that UPS charged them $30 less for my last order, so we gave it back to you! Would I have preferred them putting it back on my Visa, yes! but I'm just glad they were honest. I'll take $30 credit any day! When I need parts, I check those websites plus Corvette depot in Canada, and let me tell you CD is considerably higher and they don't disclose where the parts are coming from! I think their business model is based on 30-35% dealer discount from most corvette suppliers, they add another 20-50% on top then hit you with huge! shipping charges. And imo the quality of many parts are suspect. I have compared many sale prices at CD and they are still higher the CC..... [/QUOTE]
