Canadians getting ripped off again by oem

[fourbarrel]

The power mirror switch started going bad in my Silverado so I figured I'd replace it.Not that I adjust them all that often but I mean if the option is there you may as well have it working,so I call the local GM dealer to get a price and they tell me it's $114!!!! Well I said "that hardly seems enough" and figured I'd find another vendor.The GM dealer that is just across the american border from me quoted me $52.03 for the same part;it would appear that sled dealers aren't the only ones that like to rape people on parts.Guess where I will be ordering the part?It's terrible the difference we have to pay for parts when the very same ones are almost always half the price on the other side of the border.

Yep it is sick when you think about it.Wouldn't Yamaha parts we pu in Canada now be falling in $$$$ due to our dollar situation with the States.You would think....da!!!!I probably am going to order stuff from the States side for my sleds to.How about the Interceptor Syn. Oil by AMSOIL.It is $10.69 approx in Canadian Tire stores.In the States what would the price be per quart/liter.The prices should be dropping here for us...don't u think.

You guys in Canada should order parts from 2oooSRX (BRUCE)

I think he gives us 10% off on the parts so with shipping and all, worse case scenario you would pay regular price but still probably better than what you pay in Canada and have him ship everything USPS

Was thinking about that already tomseal6.And with our dollar difference to,could help.
