How do we know what the dealer charges unless you contact them for any parts and prices. I recently needed a fuel line for my 029 project and just took a ride to the dealer paid 9 found it online for 7. Bought the lighter saw case on sale at the dealer for 20 and online it would cost me 20 to get it shipped. I still have to go there and get another before he decides to end the sale.
Can't really compare many parts unless we had access to the prices dealers charge but this will be fun to read.
And I can't see myself calling for price everytime I need a part and then buying online so I'll just buy the bigger stuff online this way I don't bother the dealer.
Now I needed a piston for a Makita/Dolmar 7300 and bought it on ebay since I don't know if I have a dealer close by and didn't even bother looking for one. I did find OEM piston kits for as much as 130 plus shipping online so I turned to ebay for an AM for 34 shipped.
