I mean no offense,but they are so good that they raise that red flag and the hair on the back of my neck that tells me that if a price is too good to be true,it just might be.
So I goggled it,and the only site that I found something on was here. Which is potentially ok. I see their account is fairly new here,and that's potentially OK too. Every business starts off as new. Of course the problem on the internet is,it leads to a lack of a trail of trust. So I was wondering if anyone over here,preferably someone with a nice long history of a few years,has ordered from them or knows anything about them and will vouch for them?
Just to be clear,I'm not trying to offend or anything,and I have no reason at all to think there is anything wrong with them. The only reason I'm digging a little deeper is because they are so new,and their prices are honestly close to half of what others are charging,which is not a bad thing at all. In fact,I make online purchases with a credit card that covers me in case of fraud,so its not even that.Its that if I end up with a purchase going sideways,it will probably be a week or two before its to the point I know its not just a screw up,and then I have to order what I need somewhere else,and the cars sitting there with the rear pad gone down into the rotor and I have to drive this terrrible 72 International Harvester 4x4 to work in the winter with a hole the size of a dinner plate in the floor you can see the road through. Not fun at all! (although it WILL go over just about anything,and NEVER gets stuck in the snow,so next year when I get all the holes patched up with sheet metal and the inner rockers replaced,it will be great)
If it all checks out,Ill post back my experience here so there will be a trail of someone who had a good experience with them for the next guy who googls for them.

I've met them personally, but have not purchased from them. Very nice people. 50% less pricing than everyone else leads me to believe it may be a pricing error or part number mix up on the website. We'll wait until they pop in to address this.
