Re: [MBZ] Forgive me Rusty for I have tried to sin, particularly greed
Question is whether your radiator is a Behr or Nissen? From memory the Nissen are not the same as Behr and I will usually go with Behr because their upper neck is reinforced and they have a drain cock. However the last Behr I bought was made in South Africa, so whether it will last 22.5 years like they usually do, I don't know but I dare say in 22.5 years there will be no cars allowed anymore or it will be post WW3 and heavily armoured tucks will be go.

Re: [MBZ] Forgive me Rusty for I have tried to sin, particularly greed
I am going to make this real simple. There are 7 true wholesale import warehouses in the U.S. Everyone that sells parts on the internet buys from them, EVERYONE. No exceptions. Prices are set by what each company needs to cover their overhead. When I say I can match anyone I can. It is that simple. But sometimes I need more to pay the bills. I am a very small enterprise and hope to always be that way. I will try to keep prices fair and if they are not please let me know. So when some people talk about OEM vs. Aftermarket it is crap. We all sell the same vendors parts. We sell what they sell. That is the bottom line. The difference I hope, is that I have been doing this since 1976. I doubt any other vendor can say that.

Re: [MBZ] Forgive me Rusty for I have tried to sin, particularly greed
I say the real difference is that you are approachable, fair, know the parts inside and out, and are all around knowledgeable when it comes to what brands are better, what works, and what to run from. You can't get that many places, and it's very refreshing when you find someone/someplace that just knows it that well.

Re: [MBZ] Forgive me Rusty for I have tried to sin, particularly greed
Not to mention good prices. I used to shop around a lot before the presence of Rusty on the internet. I seldom find a price better than Q. (OVER THE PHONE, not on the website) If I do, he will match it. One time I found a rebuilt brake booster rather than having to buy a new one from Q. I found the source, and gave that info to Q, so that perhaps he could offer that option. When I needed rear SLS struts for the wagon, Rusty cut his price for me. Several times he has paid for 2nd day air when I only paid for ground. Nobody else does all that. Most of the time there are several choices, from Chinee, to OEM, to genUwine MB. Rusty always knows the best value or the best life, depending on what you want. Yes, Q is approachable, fair and has a sense of humor, and even throws a 'que every so often. When was the last time FLAPS threw a BBQ for you?
