Thumbs up parts price difference

I will buy all I can from Pelican Parts and Pedrosgarage because of the great free info they have. Its easy to spend enough at Pelican Parts to get free shipping. After you pay shipping, are you still saving? Anyone who owns a Boxster, should check this sites out. Happy motoring.

I got my 986 a little over a month ago and I've already made 3 free shipping ($75+) purchases from Pelican Parts. They are great and the DIY instructions saved me a ton of money and I eventually bought that 101 Project book too. :dance:

Hmmm . . . that's a tough one . . .

Thanks for your input. Just for the record, I've spent well over $1000 with Pelican over the last six months, I own Wayne's book and appreciate the tech articles.

You're free to spend your money however you like, and if that includes spending more than you need to on common items that are readily available from multiple sources - like spark plugs - go for it.
