[s-cars] Dealer parts price gouging

[CLAG500 at aol.com]

Hey Guys,

    I know this probably won't come as a suprise to anyone but I almost got
taken to the cleaners today at the local dealership. I had ordered some CV
joint gaskets from the dealer for $4 ea. because none of the online places
have them. Not too bad I thought so I decided to have them get me a trans
input shaft seal. I also needed a drive flange seal so I ordered it on line
and decided to get the input shaft seal as well in case the dealer didn't
come through. The input shaft seal was $8 from Impex. When I got to the
dealer I told them I didn't need the input shaft seal and picked up the
gaskets. I looked at my invoice on the way out and noticed they were going to
charge me $48 for the input shaft seal!! Wow! They did have some really sweet
wiper blades with the wing for $16 though.
