SPARK PLUGS/WIRES-EBAY AND AMAZON PRICES????

[Dropped HYbro]

SO I'm GOING TO BE DOING A "SOFT" TUNE UP ON MY O8'...WENT TO THE LOCAL AUTO PARTS AND PRICED OUT PLUGS,WIRES,COILS,FILTERS,ETC...AND FIGURED I'D TRY TO SAVE SOME MONEY GOING ON EBAY OR AMAZON....WHOA!!...ARE THESE PARTS LEGIT???...OR ARE THEY FAKE CHINESE COUNTERFITS??....A/C DELCO IRIDIUM PLUGS AT AUTOZONE=$7.99 EACH...ONLINE THEY ARE 8 FOR =$18.99

I DONT WANT TO SOUND NAIVE...BUT THEYVE SOLD THOUSANDS OF THESE PLUGS ON LINE...?

CAN ANYBODY CONFIRM THAT THESE ARE THE REAL DEAL...GENUINE A/D DELCO PARTS??

 

[OR VietVet]

I order a lot of items from Amazon and have ordered lots of AC Delco parts from them. They are legit. It is the difference of buying from an online warehouse, like Rock Auto, instead of a brick and mortar store. Way less "middle men" to deal with.

Rock Auto usually has a discount code available on their site in this forum.

If I order from Rock Auto I look for that discount code but I do love free shipping at Amazon.

JFC turn off the caps lock.

You didnt post the link to the item. How are we supposed to give you some feedback?

Who is the seller? Generally speaking I really only trust amazon.

 

[Dropped HYbro]

noted...caps off.

as far as an individual link...they're all over the place...just trying to get a general idea of
these parts being legitimate AC/delco...I've used both amazon and ebay in the past with
good results...just seems odd when parts are up to 85% off.

 

[OR VietVet]

Stop looking a gift horse in the mouth and order from Amazon. LOL!

By the way, even if you turn off caps we don't penalize for proper sentence structure and punctuation. LOL! Again.

 

[Dropped HYbro]

Amazon it is! Now the twist,I decided to go with Taylor wires and NGK plugs.
I hope I made the right decision based off my research...a lot of unhappy characters
with AC/delco wires and plugs

sellers with old stock or stolen from the dumpster bin i.e defective or did not meet specs

I've never had any problems with ACDelco plugs. I changed out the original ACDelco iridiums in my 2001 around 110k with ACDelco iridiums and it currently has 210k on it.

I just recently did the same with my 2012 with 105k on it

Same here. I have never had ANY problems with a new AC Delco part when I installed on my rigs. I do prefer other lines of parts for certain things but when I use the AC Delco brand I just do not have problems.

 

[Dropped HYbro]

I've always been a firm believer in AC/DELCO parts and have used them religiously in my other chevy's
1996 impala ss
1973 k5 blazer
1987 monte carlo ss

however,I didn't want to pay full retail at the auto store nearest us...and I didn't trust ordering them at 85% off from a seller who ships from china???....so I changed up a little bit and will report back with the results!

I still will use ac/delco parts moving forward..just made a fast decision to try something different this time.

 

[Dropped HYbro]

thought I would post a few pics of the chevy's I mentioned....a lot of people on here say if you don't post pics it never happened...LOL!!

 

[Dropped HYbro]

Almost forgot!

I'm always ordering from Amazon and eBay. I recently ordered all of my AFM delete/engine reseal/refresh parts and spark plugs were one of those items. You have to be careful with the nice plugs having a "possibly-too-good-to-be-true" price as there are cheap, low-quality counterfeits everywhere. The NGK TR5s I ordered were delivered today and I'm 100% convinced they're legit.

bought plugs and wires for my 2010 off rockauto. i always look the parts up on rockauto and compare prices and shipping on amazon. i have bought parts from both. i got the ac delco iridiums and also got a $25 rebate check from gm. so, they were free!

Exactly. I’m sure there are counterfeits on Amazon so beware. I know I bought some counterfeit Levi 501’s on there from a third party, they were so thin they ripped in a week. Sure looked legit other than how thin they were. Afterwards, I looked at reviews and lots of complaints. I would say if they’re too cheap to be true, they probably are knockoffs.
