Default Helpful hint when ordering car parts online.



Include a note similar to above. This will help eliminate surprise price changes and the infamous “backorder.”

That's a good idea, actually.

Let's just hope all retailers pay attention to the comments box.

Btw, nice purchase!

the part is discontinued (about 6 months ago). Injected bought all the last batch from what I was told, and they have been sold out for months now (just a helpful FYI). I would not even bother placing the order

Bummer, but the good thing is the cash is already back in your account.

So why did they charge your card if they didn't have it in stock? I'm guessing they didn't read the comment you wrote?
