...was great.

I ordered my trans temp, water temp, a/f ratio gauge, triple gauge pillar, trans cooler, and STB three days ago from the website. The next morning I had an email saying they had shipped, and today they arrived. Its my second time using Summit, and so far so good.

 

me too just ordered over 1000.00 worth of parts and they were great. fast and did i mention FREE shipping. gotta like that.

 

i like summit more than jeg's to be honest. not just because they're sponsoring my car next year either

 

And ive never had a reply to any of my requests for parts.
PM

 

ewwwwwwww,sponsored by SUMMIT:hail: :hail: :hail: :hail:

jk,how did you manage that. you didn't mention that to me.

 

didn't you say all the contingency stickers on that monte???? remember...the big one was the pizza place that pays for all the 110 fuel costs, etc. everyone on that door panel pays for something. hope you liked the sound of that SBC that's running 10.90s

 

summit > jegs IMO

i got my 4" harwood bolt on hood from summit. the shipper cracked it. i was on the phone with summit so much (i was extremely pissed off) they knew me by name. bitched at them wednesday, had my new hood monday.

 

Plus if you apply for a Summit Speed Card, you get 1 year free financing on purchases over $300.

 

Summit is THE BEST mail order parts company i've ever dealt with. They have gotten so much of my cash and will continue to. Whats nice is the tech guys know what the hell they're talking about.

 

No problems with international ordering, either...

 

I ordered a coil on tuesday night at 7, they shipped it that night and i had it on thursday....and thats standard ground....not bad

 

No complaints here about them. If I get my order in before 3pm pacific, monday - thursday, it's usually here the next day I've spent probably 6,000+ dollars there over the years. They're about to get some more money from me too lol

 

i live an hour from the ohio retail store/warehouse. i've got a friend who works in phone sales. what i do is call him, then go pick up my order.

i don't spend enough money to use their speed points program. it works for in-store retail purchases only. so i help my friend get his commission with my parts orders.

 

Whenever I order from summit I get great CS. A baffle in my muffler broke and they sent me a new one no problem, and it was there the next day. I always get the things the next day from them with no shipping charges. I love it.

 

:hail: :hail: > SUMMIT

> JEGS

95% of my jeg's orders get screwd up some how. I can't recall ever having a single problem with summit.

 

Prior to this, I had only ordered from Summit once and from Jeg's once and both went fine. I didn't have a particular reason for using Summit this time, except all my items were a few cents cheaper

 

i've yet to order from jeg's... summit has given me no reason to do so.

however, i do request a jeg's catalog periodically to read through.

 

Wanna hear something funny....I live like 35 min away from summits main warehouse in summit county ohio. One of my buddies ordered a set of roller rockers one friday morning before school. Then on saturday around 1 pm the UPS guys droped them off. Ah....gotta love it.

 

they do 1-2 day ups shipping to a pretty large area. i live an hour from there, and usually just drive down.

i see you're from north olmsted, you on aol by chance? i live over near youngstown, but have several friends who live in the cleveland/akron area.

 

I never realized that so many people don't like Jeg's.
I used both and never had a problem with either of them.
But, I do use Summit more than Jeg's.

 

lol, i never said i didn't like jeg's

i've just never had an issue with summit to where i felt the need to spend my money elsewhere

 

robertg...I used to use AOL but now I have cable. However I do have and AIM acount. It is "ksrammstein02". I am online from time to time, but mostly late. IM me anytime.

 

Summit is Great......
Spend a lot of money with them over the years....

 

Summit is really good. Last Friday night i ordered a 3" Dynomax Super-Converter, id say between 5-6pm EST i placed the order. To my suprise, the next day in the MORNING on Saturday it was delivered! And i didnt do any special shipment, just their regular shipping choice.

10/10

 

I agree. They sent me the wrong part for a fuel adapter and they are sending me the new parts pretty much free of charge. I had to pay the difference of the parts which was 2 dollars. Jegs never helped me this way they always say tough luck. Summit all the way for me.

 

Yep Summit sells parts first to provide you a service, Jegs sells parts only to fund their racing habbits. Summmit races but it not why they got into the business. Jegs is in it purly to fund racing.

Summit cars about you and your car, Jegs just wants money.

 

Do you have evidence that back up this or is this just slandering against Jegs. I think both company offer competitive prices that cannot be beat locally. I would be hard to own a millions of dollars business to fund racing. They have employee that work and depend on Jegs to support their family. But I truly believe they don't sell parts to support racing habits. That Totally Ridicules...

 

Sure watch racing once in a while. Jegs was only made to fund racing so they did not to find their own sponsors.
Summit provides a service first. Jegs just wants to race.

Their service and customer support proves that, not to mention its just true.

I remember when Jegs was born on NHRA today and it was clearly stated that it was to fund racing so they did not need to find sponsors. And of course provide you with crapy service.

I only speak the truth.

 

ONCE AGAIN, TOTALLY HEARSAY

 

i have NEVER had a bad experience with jegs. i even got a free hat with my order last week. i like jegs alot. jeg jr is a really cool guy who takes the time to hang out with car nuts. he wanted to know all about my camaro when i was at the craftsman nationals last summer. he even offered me a beer to drink with him and his buddies. with that said i highly doubt they care less about customer service.

 

ONCE AGAIN, TOTALLY HEARSAY


Give me 3 reasons why Jeg would clone Summit and ever start it???

[ not to mention I saw the interview on TV about it, when Jegs was born.]

1st reason, fund racing.
2nd reason make money
3rd reason, jock off someone who is making loads of money and get some of it too.

Same parts, same prices, very different service.

only thing you find different is the service.

You can't blame anyone wanting to make money but the motives behind it become clear in their business. Start up any project on this board and soon as anyone buys it, you will 3 clones of it.
3 V6 header projects went that way. We now run off and ban the cloners. Pacesetter is now the man.

 

:shrug:

gumby, do you have actual proof of this? if not, i'd be very careful as to how you word your criticism of jeg's.

 

I use Jegs whenever I can because they always ship using UPS meaning I always get it next day. Summit sometimes uses Fedex and that takes two days. Both of them use the BS 'free shipping' then charge you an equal handling fee. I have probably have eight orders with each and all have been good experiences. I didn't know Jegs was founded to fund racing, I must say, what a great idea. BTW, Summit isn't a not-for-profit organization.

 

I always order Summit, never jegs. I live about hour and a half away from the warehouse in ohio, so i get my parts the next day or day after. After all the parts ive ordered ive never had a problem with ANYTHING...cant ask for anything better
