    Warning: Eap4parts



    Thought you guys should know.

    I just placed some parts orders with Pelican and Bimmerparts, almost went with eap but they were closed on monday.

    It was the same for me last year when I ordered my Koni SAs from them. They did keep me updated via email from the beginning to the end since they had to accumulate orders to get everything together.

    I dunno if its a coincidence that they always move shop around summer though

    I ordered some other stuff through them, they had it in stock and I got it the next day. With the prices they have....its easy to have BMA or Pelican match them up...

      Interesting, when was the last time people dealt with these guys? I bought a number of things from them back in april with no problems, and was planning on dealing with them in another month or so.

          I got parts from them about 2 months ago ( or not even ). I spend a good $150 and got everything promptly

                  No issues with them at all. I try to buy from folks like Pelican, though....they do a lot for the BMW community.

                    I just purchased parts last week from Pelican and Zygmunt motors. Pelican has a great website and great group of people.

                      I order all my parts through EAP and I I work at the BMW Dealer getting parts at 10% over cost. They still sell parts for less from EAP than dealer cost... its awesome. If you are not in a hurry for parts then they are great, but if you are in a jam, there are better options for a bit more money. They are moving to Idaho right now, so just be patient, they will come through.

                        So that's what is happening. I've heard a couple rumors floating around about this but was never able to get a definative answer. No doubt they are cheap....just not quick.

                          What's with all their moves? Kinda sounds like Fly-by-Nite.

                            no, I have never seem them move before this. They bought the new place and then couldn't move in for some reason, so they have been working in Temecula until the place was ready. I will call them monday, I have done a LOT of business with Dave, he will tell me whats up and I can then post back about it.

                              ...otherwise- I'll have to hunt them down! :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
