Auto Zone Ordeal

The part that pisses me off is wanting to charge me for shipping. I have never been asked to pay for shipping from an auto parts store, until the local Oreillys tried it. If I wanted to pay for shipping, and wait two weeks, I would use Rock auto.

Here's the deal on that. If it's a special order part, it comes right from the manufacturer. That means it's not under the O'Reilly transportation network, so OReilly has to pay for shipping through UPS, USPS or another third party. They're not gonna pay for that for you. If it's something in an O'Reilly warehouse, it's always free to ship.
