Opinion or Thoughts Needed

Hello All,

I was wondering if anyone has ever bought anything from Henderson Truck Parts.
Here's their web site.

The reason I ask is I recently paid for a C10 Cab and Grill from them (about $2k) but am having issues with the shipping. They are in Louisiana and I am in NY. After giving them my money including shipping, the shipping company contacts me and says they need $500 dollars for insurance that will be refunded to me. It seems like a scam since they just want me to trust them and send money electronically. Two things struck me right away; one, why isn't the sender paying for insurance and two, since when would the insurance money be returned on delivery?

I've gone around and around with the shipping guys and they are very aggressive and refuse to give me some kind of paper trail.

Here is a link to the shippers site. It would seem to me for a company like this, they would have some sort of invoice or proof of insurance provided to the customer.

Any thoughts on this are appreciated.

Thank,
