Need a little help with Google,,,

Hi all,

Long story, short,,, I moved my parts off eBay onto my own website.
To my surprise, when I google a benz part number say for example "6170350612" I'm second on the list, directly under mbpartsworld.

That can't be possible worldwide, can it?

So my request is for you to google that where you live and let me know if google is returning matches based on relative location.

If you live in Ohio, it probably won't help, but California, UK, Germany, Australia etc. I would greatly appreciate the help in finding this out.

I got "BenzBonz" as the #2 result. My ISP is Norcross, GA, Richmond, VA or Louisville, KY depending on the direction of the wind.

Benzbonz also as #2 here, followed by a couple of Myrecycledparts.com sites. I'm in central CA, but ISP usually comes out of San Francisco.

[edit] IP out of Fresno currently.

BenzBonz is his site :p

Same here, and (via VPN) I'm searching from northern California.

Side note: trying to search within your site for the specific part number you (or either of the 3 other part numbers I found within your page) using Google's structure (below) comes up with no hits:
6170350612 site:w210parts.com
But - if I search for Mercedes using the same context, I get one hit - your front page.
Mercedes site:w210parts.com

That might be because w210parts.com only points to Benzbonz, Quality Pre-Owned Mercedes Parts
I checked it out with google, with "6170350612 site:benzbonz.biz" and it popped up.

Well thanks to all who participated, anyone "down under" or in Germany willing to help?

Wow thanks for the help.

Being Number one on Google for one Mercedes part isn't enough to pay the rent.

I need to sell parts.

I was thinking, that it might be a good idea to get a Google search box to let people search parts in my store.

So here it is,,, (if it works)
HTML Code:
<script>
  (function() {
    var cx = '006960486567523280951:zwes-bqxop0';
    var gcse = document.createElement('script');
    gcse.type = 'text/javascript';
    gcse.async = true;
    gcse.src = (document.location.protocol == 'https:' ? 'https:' : 'http:') +
        '//www.google.com/cse/cse.js?cx=' + cx;
    var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
    s.parentNode.insertBefore(gcse, s);
  })();
</script>
<gcse:search></gcse:search>
