M295 oil pump from Northern Auto Parts Has anyone bought an M295 pump from them and verified it's not too good to be true for the lower price than anyone else.

The M295 from Melling was made as a OEM replacement pump for the LS6 non DOD/AFM units. So the pricing you are talking about is in line with most of those so nothing special there.
Don't confuse it with the M10295 which is their higher pressure offering and an actual upgrade of the M295/LS6 pumps.

Amazon I have been buying parts from Amazon for years and have never had an issue. I just picked up a M295 for 64.99 and not worried about it at all. I love me some Amazon for parts. Typically about 1/2 the cost of a part store. Now Ebay I dont buy parts from.

On summit and jegs, the M295 which I seek is $113
Amazon always has good prices, as do some of the smaller vendors. Those two are just so big they can overcharge **** and most non-enthusiasts would never know.

I've got a few Summit 10% codes that expire 10-17, not sure if you can use them with a price match.
PM me if you need 1
Well if you ever go to a race track you' see their signs hanging all over the place, sponsorship isn't free & I don't see Amazon helping automotive sites or motorsports.
In addition to Jegs sponsorship the family are serious racers & have heard nothing but good things about them.
Jegs & Summit usually ship things out in 1 day, Amazon basically forces you to be a Prime member if you want anything shipped in a timely manor.
Amazon seems to have a goal of putting brick & mortar stores out of business.

Amazon is basically ebay for everything that's not "sold and distributed by amazon". When I look for something and it has that written below the item, it's a score but otherwise it could be from someones basement that they call a fancy business name.

Just saying most of the stuff is priced higher there, and if they do offer coupons and/or price matching then cool. But I don't see the need to pay more for something just because they have some signs up here and there.
I'd rather save a few bux and send my hard earned money to a small vendor that truly supports the LSx or GTO community (in my case) than spend more money on the same part to support Jeg's huge marketing campaign costs.

You guys are use to amazing prices as for me, summit is usually 2.5 times cheaper than anything my local shops sell (Canadian :/). To give an example, this M295 costs $173 USD and on top of that we pay 13% tax. That's why when I find $60 deals I think they're too good to be true initially.
