after six years in auto parts stores I've seen so many shops over charge for the cheapest parts and than deny parts warranty

Yes, but shops tend to buy the cheapest version of said parts & that is problematic as well.

You bring your own parts to me & they’re wrong, it’s $149 an hour until you bring the right part. That’s the cost of tying up a bay

I'm willing to Pay for my own parts Keep 3 to 5 year Warranty VS Shop only what 3 months Warranty. I'll take my chances and pay for Labor if needed.

That’s 100% fine because the place you guys order the parts are the same place we buy the parts from. Same warranty for both

you can save money doing it this way, IF You know what you're doing/ ordering. I've got no trouble with it tbh. I work at a dealership for reference.

Yeah, this happens when I go to have my radiator replaced and they charge me $500 when it retails for $120. Plus they want $700 to install it.

I own my own shop and if customer wants to supply the parts that’s fine just inform them the warranty is up to them. Simple.
