I am not surprised. Last year I purchased my multi-function switch (new) from Amazon for half the price the dealer (including GMPartshouse) wanted for it.

Yes, it is correct and I was willing to wait as the site says 5- 7 weeks. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw it shipped. I ordered mine on 11/5/2011 it arrived 11/22/2011.

Moderators, please hide this post until those of us with LS6 intakes that we need to sell get them sold.

Yep. I've not purchased any major engine components from them but for instance I needed a pigtail for one of the front lights. Was $25+ at most places online and at the local auto parts stores. Less than $8 on Amazon. I completely understand overhead and that brick and mortar places need a little bit more to pay bills, but some of the prices compared to Amazon are egregiously out of line.
