I ordered a alternator for my Porsche 944 and it was around 450 dollars, I said no, Here is the part number, it's the same as a Ford alternator. Oh Sorry, thats 170 dollars. Genuine cam belt for same car 300 to 400 dollars. Standard gates belt same part number. 50 dollars from Motormate.
In my trade muffler book, I had a listing for a merc muffler. My trade price $550, retail $1100. People always say, you get what you pay for. Not if you know what your getting.
