300% not so cool. I have bought other things from Chip, but I researched the price. Being a great guy only goes so far. Jim Moncrief at sobstory.com is an awesome guy. He has helped me more than a mechanic ever could. His prices are also lower than anyone else, and his delivery times are phenomenal. I might spend 50 bucks on a 40 dollar part with chip, but 125 for a 40 dollar part, well I am not going to do that no matter how cool and helpful he is. And yes, I have not called Chip for any other advice or questions since this came up as I don't want to be perceived as a user).

Caveat Emptor. Let the buyer beware. Anyone who just spends money without wondering about it is P.T Barnum's kind of guy. (He is credited with 'never give a sucker an even break', and 'a sucker is born every minute'.)

So, like I said. Chips is a great guy and a nice guy and a helpful guy. He has several items for decent prices. Other items need to be researched. That is not a comment on Chip or his personality or work ethic. It is just a truthful utterance.
