Took almost 2 weeks to receive items i was told was in stock. People over there seem very fishy.

I've ordered from them a couple times, always with fast shipping and good service. dunno.gif

I placed an order with them 2 years ago and cancelled due to items not being in stock after placing order. Figured I would try them again. Will use Realtruck next time.

It's a crap shoot, I've experienced both. I do know they are just a middle man, most items ship direct from the manufacturer and their "in-stock" status normally refers to stock on hand at the vendor.

I used to use them alot when they gave a 10% dicount with the "fullsizechevy" code and offered a 5% rebate through Ebates.com (See link below my sig). They don't do either any more (or didn't last time I tried), so I've started shopping elsewhere!

Same here. I've never had a problem with them and delivery has always been pretty fast.

I just ordered an Airaid MIT from them and it was here in less than a week. Now if you want to talk slow, gmpartsdirect is slow

I've ordered several things from them without any issue. Hopefully your experience is not the beginning of a trend.
omegafiler
Yeah, I too have ordered many things from them over the years. More recently was the Nifty floor mats for the SD. Got here in about a week. The only thing that might take more than a week is something custom ordered from the manufacture that they have to make, or if it's on backlog.

I've even had to return some custom ordered floor mats before and they were quite helpful, even dealing with the manufacture for you. After the manufactures suggestions didn't work, they told me to throw them away and gave me a full refund. Very nice.

Hopefully you have better luck with them in the future.

I ordered my billet grill from them, great service was received here, fast shipping along with a great price...
hastalavista
Maybe a little anxious on my part as well. thanks for the feed back on them. They are nice over the phone compared to some but so far everything ive ordered is shipped from manufacture with long delays. Their prices are the best ive seen on some things.

I ordered a Volant CAI from them, and had it in about 4 days. I was very impressed.

Me too on that. Airaid MIT ordered 4-21-09, received 4-28-09.

Have you installed that yet? What do you think?
hastalavista
Ok so placed another order and they stated would ship by05/05/2009. Still hasnt shipped and got an email stating would not ship until the 12th. Went to cancel and they will not cancel.

Never had so many problems with a vendor not stating the facts.

That's really weird. You sure you're at the right site, not autoenything.com or something? biggrin.gif

What'd you order, by the way?
hastalavista
Seems Im not the only one. Thought I was going crazy.

No im at autoanything.com and they have been the worst. Ordered a corsa touring and have had bad luck ordering online lately. Not only with autoanything but others as well not having items in stock as stated. i guess with the rough economy everyone had better BEWARE.

Being a frequent online buyer I have noticed a trend with online retailers lately. But still many great companies to buy from.

On autoanything when you get the daily email from them telling you that you have 10% off anything "just for today" (or whatever) click on the link in the email, then search for something, like a trailer hitch, or fender flares... get it down to the exact one you want, then close your browser.

the next day check your email, they'll have some super deal for you on whatever you searched for the previous day..

kinda creepy.

LOL F that!

I'm still waiting on an order (Volant CAI) to ship that I placed on June 30th (3+ weeks). I've been emailing their Customer Service and keep getting the response... "The intake you have ordered takes a little longer to manufacturer than most other parts." I will NEVER purchase from them again and wouldnt advice anyone to purchase from them.

AutoAnything SUCKS!!
Sir Dan
I ordered a Corsa Touring from Autoanything.com on July 18th. It just got here today but when I ordered it, the shipping date was stated on the order as being Jul 28th so I knew it would take awhile to get it. Well worth the wait! After I unpacked the boxes, I noticed that the stickers said "manufacture date: 07/23/09" ... So the system wasn't even built until after I ordered it. I think these companies aren't producing any surplus due to the bad ecomony so they build to order now...I have had good experience with autoanything.com so far. GMpartdirect is pretty good also but very SLOW!

I think they were pretty fast at shipping what I ordered from them, but they were very slow in providing the tracking numbers.

I have ordered a lot of stuff from autoanything through the years. The only problem I ever had was with a magnaflow exhaust. After the expected ship date came and went with no shipment notification I checked my order status on line. The ship date was changed so I decided to wait. After that date came and went I checked the order status and once again the ship date had been moved back. I phoned this time and all of a sudden they "found" one in the system at a different warehouse. My biggest complaint was changing the expected ship date without notice. I was a bit ticked off over the lack or communication so I bought elsewhere for a while. I just ordered a bunch of stuff for the Sierra from them. A couple items did not ship by the date promised. When I sent an email complaining I got a shipment notice within two hours. I don't know if they dropped the ball on the order or if it was just a coincidence. No other reply to my email though. I understand they are mostly a "drop shipper" but they need to keep customers in the loop and their suppliers in line.

No problems here. Ordered my radar detector through them and it arrived earlier than it was supposed to.

I've ordered from them twice and received items fast both times.

Same here.
snakedoctor
I've ordered a bunch of things from them, some high dollar items. Never had a problem with AutoAnything.

Now Fed EX is a different story. The Westin stainless steel nerf bars I ordered was left about 5 houses down from me by Fed EX. That wasn't AutoAnythins's fault. They put the correct address on the box.

I get the 10% discount today only e mail too. With free shipping, it's worth a look at the item a few times before you purchase something. Unfortunately, you wind up getting more than one item. Always something you can do to a truck. Figure your items will arrive in 10 days. If they get there sooner, than good for you. My UPS guy probably hates me, my packages for the steps I ordered were probably near 70 lbs. He's no spring chicken. ..
Harvey Halabookie
No problems for me. Ordered stuff for my trucks and my wife's car over last two years and enjoy the email discount coupons and quick shipping. My Dad had a problem though. He ordered a pushbar and the first two that were sent to him were dented. It did not cost him anything to return, but it was just a hassle for him to get one that was not damaged.
88k5
I ordered weather stripping for my 88 K5 and after a week I decided to call and check on order. They cancelled the order because an item was out of stock. Thinks for letting me know. Set me back a week. They could have atleast emailed or called.

Yea tell me about it. Their Customer Service sucks too.
BMG09
Those guys suck. They're mainly drop shippers and take your cash, float on it a little while while they search for the cheapest price then have it sent it to you. 4wheelparts.com is the same way also. Wont EVER buy from either them EVER!!!

got my hawk pads from them in 4 days. not bussiness days, real days
