    Online Parts retailers

    Anyone know of a good online BMW parts retailer that ships from the Midwest?

    I'm in IL and it usually takes 5+ days to get parts from either coast. I Think Blunttech is in the midwest but Blunttech's Website I cannot always get to because it gives me a Parked domain error.

    Thanks,
    Brick

        Not sure whats up but the site is working as normal.... I found this though


        Several websites vanished from Google’s index earlier this week. It wasn’t the much rumored over-optimization boogeyman. Rather, it was a bug involving Google’s classifier for parked domains, as Google's Distinguished Engineer Matt Cutts explained and apologized for on Google+. Cutts wrote:
        “The short explanation is that it turns out that our classifier for parked domains was reading from a couple files which mistakenly were empty. As a result, we classified some sites as parked when they weren't. I apologize for this; it looks like the issue is fixed now, and we'll look into how to prevent this from happening again.”

          I have never used the Blunttech website... Lol Real OEM + Blunt = :)

          He does drop ship and sometimes stuff comes from either cost, but other times it's semi-local. Minus getting things from Germany, I have never had a part take more than 4 days. (I'm Chicago area)

            Thats correct We pull from 26 warehouses across the USA so most times stuff is overnight or 2 day but that is stock dependent on the warehouse nearest you,.
            OE BMW has to be ordered though and is typically 3-6 days if in the states
            Pretty standard stuff with all suppliers

              Super fast shipping except when you need that odd dealer only part.

              Thats not blunts fault though.

                  Blunt does it right, uses google wallet and fast shipping.

                  I always email blunt if he has a part first, even if its cheaper on pelican

                          I have a pretty good source, prices are cheap, the tradeoff is slow shipping.

                          I'm not willing to give it up, thus making this post worthless.
