I have yet to have a problem dealing with this vendor .I do have one question ,if you can do free shipping to the 48 states why can’t you at least discount the shipping costs to Canada when you have these specials on? Keep up the good work!

I've ordered quite a few times from Corvette Central.
Overall good experiences.
Prices and shipping are great. Quality is good.
My only issue is when ordering on-line, the website processes your order in full, but items DO ship at different times in multiple shipments. Half of what you order is not in stock and can take anywhere from a day to months to ship out. I've been told items where on backorder but shipped next day and other items on backorder am still waiting. Average I would say is a week for items on backorder.
You may order 10 things and get 6 shipments over 2 weeks.
If your expecting to order and get everything you ordered immeadiatly, this may not be the place for you.
Don't get me wrong, they ship what they have right away. They just don't have everything their website says and once you order, you then wait a day to recieve email confirmation of what they do have and don't have and when to expect the items. Confirmation emails do not always match the part numbers you ordered too which causes further confusion.
I ordered a bunch of stuff 2 weeks ago. Got everything within 48 hours except my bubble lights. They are on backorder till May, but website does not state this.
Would I buy from them again. Yup. Just wish they'd fix their website to reflect what's in stock and what's not. Waiting on something you thought you'd recieve quickly is frustrating.
Products/price/shipping/personal service =A+
Chances items are in stock =C-
UPDATE!!!!
Just got this email from them. Originally back ordered to May.
Looks like I won't have to wait as long as expected!

Hmm.....
I did not mean to start an argument about CC being good or bad.
I will be shelling out $750-$1000 on parts and just wanted to know if I cound piggy back on a discount that just expired.
Thanks to everyone who participated.
