You are comfortable with Reliable sub-contracting your job out to God knows who? I have no idea of how they work, I have just read the horror stories over the years.

Cheap transport company = horror story or delivery with no damage if Lucky

Expensive transport company = 99% delivery with no issues. Damage once in a blue moon

I can't even believe you are bringing up the partsladi. I'm glad the partsladi sold those units because guess what they are out of business now so where you going source that part now?? Those who bought it at least have the main body to put the pumps into.

So, I have 2 positive first-hand experiences, you have hearsay. OK, that makes perfect sense to me now.

In my reply, the first thing I said was "If you are looking for cheap" -- nowhere did I claim that the transportation services purchased this way were the best, the fastest, the safest. If you are expecting Rolls-Royce service at Chevy prices, you're going to be disappointed each and every time.

As for the partsladi, I wasn't the only person they screwed over, maybe you were more fortunate, maybe you're lamenting their disappearance. It's kind of funny, actually - you're on a high horse about paying more for an auto transporter, and repeating "horror stories" about a low-cost shipper, but you're the first to defend a seller of lower-priced parts, compared to a vendor such as Kurt White, who might be pricier but is likely to stand behind a product far more than partsladi ever would.

Seems to me that the original poster in this thread has a clear choice - if he's looking to save money as the top concern, he has an option to do so. If he's looking for white-glove treatment, and is willing to pay for it, you've given him something to think about.
