How does Mercedesshop do that???
 

I needed a few small gaskets that didn't come in the headgasket set included with the rebuilt head I am swapping onto my '84 300D. I ordered them yesterday online from Mercedesshop just after noon..... They arrived today via UPS. How do they do that?

The package was shipped from someplace in NJ but the invoice is marked GA and I thought Mercedesshop was in CA??? Seems pretty amazing to me and I am not complaining in any way! Delivery in just over 24hrs of 4 small obscure gaskets that the local dealer would have to order.

Keep up the good work! RT

You're tellin' me. A total inigma, isn't it? I've ordered things @ noon, then they are in Ohio only about a day later. Truely amazing.

Agreed they are amazing! When I was rebuilding the TE Phil schooled the mechanic!

I was hoping it was a transporter, but then I remembered we haven't mined dilithium crystals yet.

WorldPac.
 

They're everywhere, they're everywhere!

Yep. World Pac.

Has a warehouse 2 hours from me.

They have a warehouse in Stamford CT I beleive. I actualy saw a car with Worldpac on the side in big decals the other day. They must deliver to shops or something.

Phil's service is what makes me a loyal customer.

It's called private enterprise. The Profit Motive works.

It is awsome how quick my parts show up also!!!! I am hooked to this place!

And 40+ others strategically located across the USA. WhirledPac is in Canada (at least 12 locations) too.

I have an account with WorldPac too - they're quick and inexpensive.
