Disbelief..., AA actually came through (ebay auction) Options

[campbellcj]

I've been trolling around for a 2.0/six muffler bracket ("boomerang") for a while and on a whim I went ahead and bid on the AA repro part on ebay last week. I figured if they stiffed me the $20-30 I could slam them in ebay feedback and on all the boards, which would be kind of fun (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)

To my great surprise the part arrived at my door within 7 days and is of quite decent quality. I don't have a factory one to compare it with (duh, that's why I bought this one) but it sure looks identical per my fuzzy memory.

The shipping seemed a couple bucks on the steep side but I still think $29 for a -new- part, without having to leave my desk, ain't bad at all.

I'm friggen shocked.

(DON'T construe this to mean that I'll buy everything from them in the future, LOL, they're still a "vendor of last resort" in my book).
