Last time I needed something from them I did do that, not sure why I didn't this time. I guess I forgot. Got a turner beanie with that order also lol.
This time I realized I realized rockauto does the same thing with the R56 as the e30 - some stuff is only listed under '88 for the e30 (or '13 for the R56). Anyway the same part was less than half the price.

Not sure why people keep going to ECS when you can date their evil twin that is slightly hotter, Turner.
Turner has high priority at ECS's warehouse how I understand, and get the same product if you call them it its not listed.

I think I'm a realist for the most part, just a reluctant one.
Like since my last post, I've been clearing out a lot of junk from my back yard, basement, garage, etc. Enough to fill about half a dumpster.
Local company has 3500lb rated 'dumpster bags' for like 1/2 the cost of a dumpster rental/disposal. We used them before when I demoed the old kitchen and it basically held an entire kitchen and some car junk.
I filled this bag last weekend, and my wife had been in contact with the company leading up to this, no issues.
As soon as we call for pickup, it's radio silence. Bag has been sitting there all week, blocking my driveway.
I also made the tragic mistake of ordering something from ECS... I tried to cancel the order the next morning, but received an automated reply about long customer service backlogs...
10 days later, still no response. They did manage to generate a shipping label and ship it during that time.
Now I'm in a dance with FedEx, who robo-called me to demand a $35 brokerage fee payment, and has been repeatedly attempting to deliver it while I'm having my wife refuse the package over and over. There's apparently no support available - their online/phone customer service line is just a robot that gives canned answers and eventually hangs up.
I know there's a metric fuckton of ECS hate out there, and I try to stay neutral, but man it is definitely deserved.
There's like one dude on NorthAmericanMotoring that manages ECS's official account there, and while his main purpose seems to be to push people toward ECS, he is generally quite helpful, and is genuinely the only good part of the entire company.Leave a comment:
