WTF is with SBR?

"Free shipping" but they charge like $9 processing fee? Seems like that would piss people off a lot more than having to pay postage. What a load.

i'd rather pay $9 than the $50 it would be to ship some heavy parts :)

It's not like they don't factor that into the price lol SBR has never been the best deal.

Yea, I totally agree. I would much rather someone say, "$9 flat rate shipping fee on all orders <$999" than say free shipping then charge handling. I hate SBR.

They say free shipping, but they factor in the handling...Handling Fee Rates
Less Than $1000 = $8.95 fee
$1000 and Up = $15.95 fee

Thanks Lee for telling me about ssstuds. They don't have the allen head style bolts for the valve cover, but their price ($12) seems reasonable compared to SBR's $26.95 shipped price. Both are stainless steel.

But I see it this way,

do they take forever to ship their parts???
if so they should not charge a freaking penny more for shipping

No prob, I like their stuff. I've had all of their bolt sets on my car since last year and I never had another bolt break after I switched to them.

They Should be names SlowshippingBoy.com

I swaer i paid an extra 90 bucks and it still took 2 weeks to get to my door.

i've never had a problem with SBR, so all of this is completely over my head. the only time i had a "problem" was when i got the wrong part, but they immediately called and knew that i had gotten the wrong part and emailed me a shipping label to send it back. i got the new part 2-3 days later.

eh.. ive never had a problem with their shipping.. But im the moronic idiot that always has to pay 100 bux for next day shipping whenever i order anything.. So normally it takes 2-3 days to get somethign from them.. The key is to PHONE THE ORDER IN>> do not order online.. They only process online orders like 2wice a week..

But I spent well over a grand with them today and I did it all online and didnt add any shipping.. So weel see how long it takes..
