Third Gen Bargain Barn

Has anyone here bought anything from http://shop.thirdgenbargainbarn.com/ ? They don't have a lot but what they do have seems fairly priced. If you have used them, was your experience good/bad?

Re: Third Gen Bargain Barn

Ordered some stuff from them last month or so.
The prices are fair and so is overseas shipping, which matters to me A LOT!
I received the ordered parts and the condition is quite alright for used items.

Re: Third Gen Bargain Barn

I ordered a refurbished T-Top crossbar. It arrived in perfect condition and very quickly.

Thumbs up from this 3rd gen owner. I will purchase more from them.

I recently ordered headlamp assy. from there. They have it listed as right, left or pair with a picture of the right and left together. So naturally I thought i was ordering two front headlights. They sent me two drivers side headlamp assy. I contacted them and he assured me it was a mistake in the warehouse and that they would see what they could do. Otherwise the drivers side headlamp worked perfectly and both were in great shape. Ill let you know if they rectify the mistake easily or give me a hard time.

Re: Third Gen Bargain Barn

I had a positive experience with this company. The diodes were bad in my harness and reverse switch and they fixed them for me.
It is clear thru email they are knowledgeable. And their website even lists the specific grease type that should be used in the switch.
They repaired my original reverse switch and swapped the casing from my junkyard one as requested. But they also cleaned up the junkyard one no charge so now I have 2 working switches.
They are also on ebay as a repair service, autotrunkmotor
