I've been robbed! I ordered a 2001 slave cylinder from Thunder for 107.00.
GM Parts direct sells them for 64.00

Anyone doing a clutch and upgrading hydraulics keep this in mind when you order a slave <img src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" border="0">

Re: I've been robbed! 1) you should have looked around more to see if their was better pricing.
2) Paceparts and Phoenix Pontiac sell it for 76 bucks.
3) After shipping from Gmparts direct it comes to 76 bucks the same as what Paceparts sells it for.
4) They didnt rip you off, ripping you off would be saying that its 70 bucks and charging you a 100 for it.. <img src="graemlins/gr_cry.gif" border="0" alt="[whiner]" />
Look around before you buy something to get the best price. <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">

Re: I've been robbed! GMpartsdirect is an illusion to make you think you're actually saving money. They lower their prices to below GM costs to give you an illusion that you're saving money, and then rape you on shipping to make their money back. Works everytime, even suckered me once.
107 is about right, thats what GM dealers sell to the public. Pace just happens to sell things at cost for board members.

Re: I've been robbed! It's true the shipping kill's you.
I ordered a coolant temp sensor from my local dealer for $19.95.I then looked it up on GMpartsdirect and it was $9.95.I was like damn.Then noticed shipping was estimated at $10.00. So for the same price as the Dealer and I didn't have to wait because it was in stock.

Re: I've been robbed! Yeah, I didn't see it on the other sites, My bad. But even if you paid 10.00 for shipping its still 35 bucks more at Thunder.
This was more of a HEADS UP for others who might be as new at this as me so they won't have to pay as much. <img src="graemlins/gr_barf.gif" border="0" alt="[barf]" />

Re: I've been robbed! For all you people hating on GMPartsDirect...
Order a bunch of parts and see how cheep the shipping is. The more you order, the less you pay for shipping.
