With about a month to go on my wife's Volvo lease, I noticed the LH foglight was busted (greeeeaaaatt). I got three prices, guess who I went with:
Volvo of Houston $102.25 (and they wouldn't give me the part # over the phone)
Momentum Volvo $90.20
Eeuroparts $73.76
I understand these guys are in business to make money, but as a consumer it's my right to shop around and get the best price. And, as Anders said, the Internet has really changed things.
With the service writers and parts guys working on commission, who do you think they're looking out for?
