Anyone else noticing higher prices at Summit lately

Yeah I still love the catalogs too. We still have them going out at least four times a year and we’ve added mini-catalogs that are more focused on tools or your specific vehicles. One thing we did mid last year was let people know how many of something we have left on the shelf down to the single digit. The inventory levels from the vendors if we need to dropship is pretty accurate so the “live”technology has definitely helped. I’m waiting on stuff myself but luckily I’ve been able to substitute for other brands a lot. That’s another thing that’s fairly new is a notification showing a comparable part available from another brand helps us make a decision on whether that’s a way to go.


Thanks for coming on for Abodiesonly and explaining what you guys are up against. When placing an order is there anyway of telling which state our order will be coming from? Example I’m in Pa and if I order early enough I usually get it the next day. But if a couple of items aren’t in stock in Ohio my order is kicked to 3-5 days from Texas usually. A lot of times if I knew this I could have easily substituted another part was was in stock locally. The counter guys are great at letting us know this so I probably answered my own question.
