    Default NOPI product prices....online vs. in-store vs. manufacturer price...

    I'm just wondering, if the prices online are REALLY what they are at the stores, because you know how you see really cheap prices online for certain parts, and you get your hopes up, then go to the store and find out it actually costs two or THREE TIMES as much....I'm tryin to save up for a part for my car, and i've seen the part online @ the nopi catalog for ~$150.00, but at the official website of the part's manufacturer, they suggest the part should cost ~$350.00....

    And what I was wonderin is, what would the real price be like if i went to the actual store and tried to order the part? 150, or 350?

    well i know from personal experience as they are right down the street from me, if you lookup a part on nopionline.com and it comes up whatever price it says it will be that price in the store considering its in stock. the only time the prices change is if they have to "special" order the part, like say an exhaust system then youll be charged a shipping thingy. hope this helps j00

    online is always cheaper. I have ordered online and picked it up at the store before (no shipping costs that way).

    usually, how long does it take for the parts to ship?

    i deal with them alot. for the most part their prices are the same in the store. it depends on the car if they will have it in stock, if you have a honda, eclipse or something of that matter. if you have to order something it will take them 7-10 days to get it.

    Don't ever go to nopi and pay the regular price, employee discount is the shit.

    well, i went into the store the other day, and they HAD my part there for almost the exact same price as labeled online. There was only a difference of maybe $13 more in the store....but thats probably because of shipping.

    I'll probably keep you in mind too if i decide to keep the car and go for some more expensive upgrades later on down the road.
