Special Order parts from Replex - BSP Bravo


We are adding a fair number of special order parts for the CARQUEST line BSP ( made by Replex Fasa ). For example the shoes BSP SLS 795 are now in our system - but they are NOT in the CARQUEST DC system. We have made sub-line #3 for all special order parts. Since we use a special billing schedule logic for BSP-- we have applied this same logic to these.

The 795 are a unique set --as some suppliers will have a CHEAP price -- but they do NOT give you the lever and PIN --and the PIN is the part that Greg Guyitt from Auto Barn tells me that the shops can NOT GET OUT to replace the shoes -so the cheap set is returned and the proper set is ordered and much time is lost by all.

We have FRI BS795 -- but we feel our customers deserve an option to the premium set - this we have waited LONG ENOUGH and have added this and will be adding more as the days go on.

NOTE --the CARQUEST DC will be calling us and saying --hey -- you ordered a BSP SLS795 - that is not a good part --at which time you ask them to 'special order it' for us.

We have made Toronto special order dept - AWARE that Replex is readily available from their Toronto warehouse --the sad fact that NO OTHER CARQUEST jobber has forced the issue until now. Replex warehouse is south of 401 close to Dixie Rd - in case you wanted to know --we added the data into our Plaxo address book as well - in case you need a phone #.

I understand that CARQUEST is still reviewing what additional #'s to add - but we asked for these in Jan 07 - and we feel we have waited long enough. Watch for more numbers to be added --we will LINK using the standard '@BSP 123' from either blue or red shoes so they show up in e-cat
