spark plugs= needle in a hay stack!!

Went to buy NGK 3332 spark plugs at:
* Autozone, no luck can't get them but they did have the $7.99 a piece ones they could order!
* O Reilyes, have Saturday, no wait special order be a week.
* Summit 2.99 a piece shipping= $28
* I couldn't make heads or tails at what they had but it wasn't NGK3332.
* Rock Island $1.58 plus shipping and maybe a 5 day shipping wait!
I hope these freaking plugs are all that and a bag of chips over ACs for the bull I have to go thru!
Now the car will sit all weekend instead of two cruise ins and a car show.

You can't be serious.
Half the time, I think Amazon shipped things when I thought about ordering them, instead of when I actually searched, found, and paid for them.

amazon

I agree... "prime" is probably the greatest value out there. I got my Spectra gas tank in 2 days free. 42" hd tv no problem...2 days - free, etc, etc..
returns, no problem..they charge you their ups rate, which is peanuts.
Amazon is awesome..

That's if you change your mind.

If they screwed up, it's free.

X2 on Summit ,and Im in Canada ,I bought an HEI from them that didnt' work out properly ,I called them ,they said they'd send me another model from another company which was a more pricey one but they gave it to me for the price I paid originally,PLUS they sent me a paid return shipping notice via email which I had within 5 minutes of getting off the phone!!Awesome service.
