Hi chawk-man,
Well, I guess if you get them at all, that accounts for something.
I haven't purchased anything there for months as I have been laid up and had surgery. But, I am sort of depending on that service being there to support a little business I have of buying, fixing and then reselling old Honda's. It would be a shame if it were to go away. Both for me AND those old bullet proof B's. There's still a lot of small lake fishin' left in most of those old 7.5's and 10's.
By contrast to both your and Stillwater's recent experiences with boats.net, I just ordered auto parts for an "extinct" model line from a .com supplier of refurbished old car parts. They took my order on Friday, for a fairly obscure component, and I just got shipping confirmation this morning. All on a three day holiday weekend no less! Now THAT'S service!
Keep them 225's churnin' Chawk!
