I look at their catalogues just to make myself feel better about how much I saved by not buying from them. Otherwise, I shop at:

www.europeanautomotive.com (free shipping over $50)
www.thepartsbin.com (ditto)
www.bestforeignauto.com (ditto)
www.eurowebparts.com
I agree with what RL says, I have seen other places and some of the ones above that have prices way lower than PP or Vertex. Chris and others know why Vertex will never see a dime of my money ever again, they have a shady operation going on down there.
Ever since Arnold has been Governor the prices at PP seem to have been increasing .
I only order stuff from PP if I can't find it anywhere else, if they have what I'm looking for cheaper, or like Chris Ma. said about throwing them a bone . The main reason why I had to start ordering parts from some of the above suppliers is because I hate to spend $10-$20 to ship something across the country which will reach my place next week .
I like best foreign for stock parts.
I get the parts in 2-3 days max (their located in OH, PA, and NJ) and best of all, shipping is free.
