I also buy a lot of parts from ZIP Products as they ship fast and charge reasonable prices (usually).
I have spent lots with Rock Auto but If you get a bad part from RA good luck... I have had two bad parts, one was the used MAP sensor in a new box. The part had oil and junk buildup on it. the box even looked like it had been opened. They accused me of trying to pull a fast one on them by returning the defective part. They could not comprehend that somebody ordered this part and put the old one back in the box and returned it. The other was a O2 sensor that was faulty in the box. They would not replace or refund me the money for either part. Try and talk to a live person at that place...
I really like having a good connection with your local NAPA auto parts store as some of their staff are very knowledgeable. We need to keep the brick and mortar stores open for us down the road so stop ordering from Jeff Bezos at Amazon and Rock Auto.
When I need a part that has to be ordered I check with NAPA and then ZIP and R/A for the pricing. If it is close in price I will use the local supplier. I will not be ordering any O2's from R/A as I have had a 25% failure rate from the start on several orders with R/A. I have never bought so many defective oxygen sensors from any company.
God Luck and choose wisely!
Best regards,
