I asked the salesman if there was anything he could work out as far as prices go since I was buying almost $3k worth of equipment. He said no, because some of the items except 2 were already on sale. Whether they were or not, they're still making a killing off of them. I know what cost is on these items, so that's how I know that they're high.
Kewl_Blades, I want to save money, but I don't want refurbished equipment.
2002C5COUPE, what's with you posting these somewhat negative comments? Yeah I may have spent a bit much on a tailgate handle, but were talking about $190 vs. several thousands of dollars. I don't know who you think I am or what kind of money I've got, but I still like to save money just like everyone else. Even if money wasn't an issue for me, it doesn't mean I have to pay full price for things.

No negativity here. My other replies were my opinions, the last one was a joke, don't take it so serious.

Well, those items are all on sale and you are saving money compared to if they were still full price.
What do you have against refurbished? An item that is guaranteed by the manufacturer and seller to perform at the exact same specs as a non-refurbished item but at half the cost....that is exactly what you should be looking for. You want quality at a discounted price, right? There it is. Waiting for you in the land of the refurbished.
Remember, these are not reman'd alternators or waterpumps.
