Has anyone had bad experiences with Service Honda? I placed my first order with them about a month ago and I'm having a he$$ of a time getting what I ordered. I get my stuff and there's no right motor mount. which I had ordered...so I give them a call and the service reps must be dead becasue I was on hold for about an hour....so I email them and my guy Clint there has to "research" the order and get back with me....I could have found the holy grail by now... that's the last I heard from him and I've been trying to call and write back...but no response. Either he's on a sebaticle or just deosn't give a fu[k. So now I'm waiting on one motor mount...how rediculous is this!! Any other horror stories?

i used them a few times....

1) they charge a minimum of $8 shipping...so a 72 cent part will run $8.72

2) you cant ever seem to get a problem with an order solved in a timely manner.

id suggest dealing with c&d. if there is a problem or error atleast you have good lines of communication with them.

i had zero problems with them and i ordered a lot of stuff from them. one time they thought they might have messed up my order for 5 oil filters and sent it to the wrong address so he sent me five more and said if i get the original order not to worry about it so i got 10 for the price of 5. the last time i ordered from them they had to get my parts in stock so it took like 3 weeks that was a pain

Hmm... lets make a list, shall we?

-1 order lost
-1 order duplicated
-0 answered e-mails or phone calls (MANY were sent!)
-Countless parts backordered and never sent
-Overall service SUCKS, so does the on-line ordering
-Like paps said, shiping is a rip off (I was charged $12+ for a 2lb package, when I would bet that it costed them no more than $5 to ship).

list could go on, and on, and on!

I ordered rims from them last spring. It's a long story but only one rim showed up and I had to fight for weeks to get the other one.

I just looked up part numbers on their microfiche and then ordered all my stuff from C&D this week.

think about this....
how often have "they" ever had your part in stock?... not very, right. i know that they have never had one instock for me. if you ask me its some guy sitting on a couch taking orders(i knows its more then that, but just follow me here) so he sits on his couch,.. have a "dealership" so he gets the parts for dealer cost,.. sells them cheap, because he doesnt stock any. So when you call, he says he doesnt have it, and will have to order it from "honda", thats why it takes longer to get, plus now,.. why is he gonna go out of his way and pay your shipping,.. so he makes up for it by charging you more then actual shipping from him to you( more like from honda, to him, to you) all he is doing is playing middle man, and taking your money. And he doesnt have to stock anything..(but he might stock the "common" parts)..... make sence.?? like i said,.. "he" has never had anything in stock that i needed.

it just took like a month for them to get my parts to me and when i opened the box this nasty arse smell came out it smelled exactly like dog***** so maybe yellow_ho_01 is right

their parts are cheap because they dont carry any in stock, this keeps them from having to spend money on parts they dont sell right away

i havent had any problems w/ them but i only ordered once from them

i'm going to be ordering from them soon but from the sound of it i'm goin to c&d
