If I run the tracking number, it tracks
I'm sure that's the case.
That's what Worldpac does. A lot of the online parts retailers are using a
customized "front end" that utilizes Worldpac's system. When you order it just
goes to Worldpac and they drop ship from one of their warehouses with the
seller's information on the pack slip and

The thing I dislike about AhAZ is it takes forever to get parts. Perhaps I am
spoiled by Amazon Prime, but I don't like waiting 7-10 days for stuff to show
up. I'm going to give eeuroparts.com a try soon. I will report back
