BUYER BEWARE! So I needed a part for my Corvette and the local shops didn't carry it. So I went online and I thought we found it although a bit more expensive but I had no choice, showed that it was "in stock" but it still took several weeks to get it. Unfortunately, it was the wrong part but we didn't know because there weren't any illustrations or site diagrams on the part we needed (drivetrain related). Once we got it and opened the box we quickly realized it was wrong so we needed to return it. Submitted a return request and it took a few weeks to get that approved. They initially weren't going to refund the core until I made mention of it and then Kris Griffin replied and said they would adjust the AR to reflect the core and send me a return slip for the part. The email literally mentioned the entire initial amount but said I wouldn't be able to recoup the shipping charges which was fine with me, but never mentioned that I would be charged any restocking fee at all. Once the return was completed and processed that was when I was told there was a restocking fee. If you go look at their return policy it also doesn't make any reference to a 35% restocking fee either so I never thought that was going to be an issue at all but boy was I wrong! I own a few businesses so I understand the restocking fee but it's usually only 10% - 20% at max and it's always disclosed upfront! This wasn't the case in this situation. Never again will deal with them and I encourage everyone else to do the same!
