Are the Cheap Prices & Discounts from RockAuto Really Worth It

It`s almost common sense these days that if you own a car, you need to think cheaply. If you didn`t hear by now about the unbelievable cheap prices RockAuto`s offering or about the great RockAuto discounts available on car related message boards and blogs, then you either don`t have any financial issues to confront with or you don`t usually use online auto parts discounts.

RockAuto – Best Option for Online Auto Parts!

According to most recent data, RockAuto is seen as one of the best choices in terms of online auto parts purchases. You can find a lot more RockAuto discount auto parts than you might think, and after you find what you need on the RockAuto parts catalog list available on the company`s site, you`ll have a pleasant surprise when paying for your order – the price will be really cheap.

Sometimes RockAuto shipping prices aren`t so great and the company often prefers to lose customers than cover for shipping on parts that need to be exchanged for wrong info in the brand`s ordering system. This sucks from the customer`s point of view, but Advance auto discounts or AutoZone discounts offer bigger savings for a reason – the original prices of the auto parts are a lot more expensive than what RockAuto`s offering. So it`s only logical to assume that the company can`t offer cheaper prices than the competition and also match the prices of the other auto retailing brands.

Let`s say you have to change a part for your car like for example, a bearing. You`ll be able to find at Advance Auto Parts for $219, while RockAuto will offer it for $150 along with an additional $20 for shipping the part. Most customers will immediately turn to RockAuto for the obvious reason. And while is true that you can find a RockAuto price match for most parts at other brands like AutoZone or Summit Racing, these are still rare occasions and it`s better to stick with what you know than losing countless hours searching online and comparing deals from different auto retailers.

If you really want to save money, the trick is when using the RockAuto auto parts catalog to use the “Trucks” icons or at least use the “Choose for Me to Minimize Costs” tool. This will allow you to find auto parts that can ship together, meaning they`ll be sent from one warehouse (if possible), and thus avoiding additional shipping expenses.

RockAuto Reviews Don`t Always Reflect Reality

According to ResellerRatings.com`s RockAuto.com review page, almost close to none of the reviews posted on that page are related to the prices the company`s providing or the RockAuto discount codes released every month on online forums. That should really mean something, don`t you think?

And if you have some sort of minimal experience online, than you know best than paying too much attention to any negative RockAuto parts review you find on the internet. Most of those reviews are nothing more than the personal opinion of some upset customer because either RockAuto isn`t offering free shipping services or perhaps because a part took too long to be received.RockAuto cheap prices

Your Thoughts!

I don`t buy auto parts for a long time from this company but now that I see how great it is to pay cheap prices and still be satisfied with what you get, I would say that the days when buying parts from other auto retailers are gone.

So you tell me! Are the RockAuto discounts and the cheap prices offered by this company worth your trouble? I think yes, wouldn`t you agree?

How to Minimize your Shipping Cost with RockAuto?

Did you know that even though there isn`t a RockAuto free shipping featured offered yet, there`s still a way to minimize your shipping costs every time you order auto parts from RockAuto.com?

 

Useful Tips on RockAuto Shipping

How many times did you ordered an auto part from an online resource only to find yourself in different unpleasant situations regarding the shipping of your parts? With RockAuto such issues can`t occur. But for one to avoid problems when making an auto part order from this company, one needs to understand everything that involves RockAuto shipping.

I thought would be better to cover a few general rules regarding RockAuto shipping which customers can use to guide themselves when ordering auto parts from Rock Auto.

Tip Nr. 1

As you may already know, there isn`t any free shipping offered by this company, then the next question that comes into people`s minds is “How much does shipping cost then?” Well, you need to see the shipping costs section before you enter any personal details by simply adding auto parts to your shopping cart. Then you have to choose the country where you live and enter your zip code, as in the page below.

Usually, all shipping costs are reflected by the weight and size of the auto parts you ordered, but also of your present carrier rates or your location. To be certain you`ve minimized your shipping costs as much as you possibly could, it`s best if you select auto parts which can be shipped from the very same location.

Tip Nr. 2

For those who want to know which are the auto parts that cost the least when they are shipped, well, that`s a tricky one. The company generally sells more than 1.000.000 distinct auto parts and one warehouse couldn`t hold all the parts together. If you decide for auto parts that aren`t stocked in the very same location, carriers need to charge for 2 boxes.

Tip Nr. 3

You may have heard about the term “core charge.” A core charge is nothing else than a deposit. When you place an order to buy a part, you pay for it and then you`ll be refunded back when the old part it`s sent back. Specific cores should be returned within 2 months, such as transmission or engine cores, while others should be returned within 6 months. There are certain guidelines you need to keep in mind before returning a core:

  • Use the Order Status & Returns page to get & follow return directions.
  • Because you`ll be responsible for shipping your core back, you need to make a decision whether or not your core deposit will be worth your shipping cost.
  • Check that the core is complete and that is returned back in the same box the auto part came. The old auto part does not really have to be working, but you won`t get any core credit for unusable or smashed cores.

Tip Nr. 4

One of the most common issues the customers encounter when making a RockAuto part order is regarding a saved address on a completely new order. To get pass this, a few simple steps need to be taken:

  • Log into your personal account and then make a click on the “Continue Shopping” tab.
  • Add any auto part products you need to your own cart, then go to the Checkout page. Once there, make a click on the “Saved Address” URL, and then another one on the billing address.
  • If you need to ship your part to a distinct address, the box near the “Check Here if Same as Billing Address” line needs to be unchecked. Then make a click on the “Saved Address” URL located on top of the shipping address to choose a different location to deliver your parts.rockauto shipping tips

Now there might be a lot more questions that customers may feel the need to find answers regarding other subjects, like info on RockAuto shipping locations, if any RockAuto shipping tracking options may be available or how much RockAuto shipping to the door costs, but for such information the company has already a specific Rock Auto FAQ page designed here: https://www.rockauto.com/lang/en/answers.html. If you have a question for which you can`t find an answer at that page, you can always use the RockAuto phone number – (608) 661-1376 – and personally ask someone from their staff about your concern.

Let`s See What Happens!

Now hopefully you`ve read the above guidelines regarding RockAuto shipping and can consider them on your future Rock Auto parts orders. And remember, if you have any more questions for which you need answer, you can always visit the Rock Auto FAQ page and improve your knowledge. Chances are other customers before you had the same problem and the company already answered to their inquiry.
