Probably not the right place for this but,on rockauto.com,what is the difference between private label packaging and regular inventory?

 

Did you try asking them? I'm sure there's a 'contact us' link or something there.

 

yes i did but i was hoping to get a quick answer before i am away from the computer for a few days!!

 

I believe the private label is name brand stuff in there packing. The regular inventory is in a plain box.

 

I've wondered the same thing. But haven't ordered anything yet with that option to find out.

 

dont know but they have amzing service and delivery

 

yea rockauto is amazing. the parts make it here faster than if i ordered them through the local mom&pop parts store

 

Private label is stuff like Moog tie rods in a NAPA box or Raybestos brake pads that say "Neverstop" or some such house brand.

 

I got my answer from rockauto themselves.
"Private label is an economy brand part.They generally have a shorter warranty time frame and are priced less as well.
The regular inventory generally is made with better quality material, have a longer warranty and are priced a little higher."
But why in the case of motor mounts for my dodge is the regular inventory $5.95 cheaper then the $14 private label part?
