What happened to partssociety.com?

Howdy, It's been awhile since I left the porsche parts business. Some things have changed and I'm thinking about getting back into it again. I went to check on my strongest competition back in the day and it looks like he closed down. I googled partssociety and came across some threads about dissatisfied customers. Who's your choice for used parts now?

I hope that you return to the used Porsche part business. I've been using eBay, for sale posts in Porsche forums and a company called DC Automotive in North Carolina.

I've been able to get by, but I think my experience with you was the best.

Good luck if decide to open up shop.

I have been buying from dismantlers on ebay or classified forums. I would love to know what everybody else is using too!

You'd be my first choice for used parts. C'mon back.

See you around.

The are still qualityporscheparts on eBay, where the message is The seller is away until Wed, Oct 09, 2024. Expect a delay in delivery until they return.

Back in the day I bought tons of stuff from them on ebay

These days it appears they may be sold out of most 986/996 stuff and I'd be surprised if they finde many Panamera customers.

They are (or were) a local Albuquerque business, and while I know where they were located I never visited in person.
