Which vendor has all these parts? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I just called LMC to order some parts. Had everything on the order and then they hit me with the price after shipping and handling. I can't bring myself to pay that for 6 mirror screws, 2 mirror gaskets and a power steering return hose. So I said forget it and I thought I would check on the board. So who has this little stuff?

So how bad was s/h ??
Check with classic truck parts, I have ordered items thru them before.

12 bucks shipping and handling. Thats alot for what I was buying. (IMO) Plus I thought I needed to support the vendors on here.

It should be 12 bucks total!

always a good thing to support those who support us. I'd try Christian's Classic Truck Parts as well because he's not that far from you.

but unfortunately you will pay crazy shipping/handling charges for "small" orders. just the nature of the beast....

Well I checked their website and they don't have the return line.

LMC can rape you on shipping because they go by dollars spent,not size or weight.So if you buy a small but expensive part they add insult to injury to an already expensive part.For instance.I paid $200 for a $150 steering wheel.Those wheels run close to $200 now,so add another $50.I`ve seen N.O.S. steering wheels (extremely rare and way more valueable) go for around $300,not much more.
