WWW.MBATC.DE cheap used parts
This is the site from Mercedes in Germany where they dismantle 1000's of cars and they have everything listed online with price.
I,m wondering if anybody has ever bought from them. The site is mostly in German, but you can use the translate tool in the ALTAVISTA search site, it works fairly well.

I do manage to get around with English version, but when i get in the actual part search it goes back to German, i don't know if i'm doing something wrong or it is not available in English.
Any help, Thanks

You're right Eric. I selected English and I used Babelfish at the same time and that was the best combo. Unfortunately when you do that the search button on mbatc.de dosnt' work.
If you use English and select search the results come up in German.
It may not be worthwhile to order from Germany anyways. My friend ordered a spoiler for his 530i from Germany and the shipping was $250 CDN! Outrageous for something that weighs so little.

I did talk to them today and they do shipped to the state, if you use FEDEX economy it will be around $90 for an average size package. They dismantle 1800 cars a year and they have every possible parts available and all listed online.
Anyway i just curious if anybody ever bought anything from them Ex: like a comand system.

I've never ordered from them, so I can't speak for whether their parts could be considered a good deal, cost-wise.
I have known the Managing Director personally for about 30 years, and I can certainly vouch for the firm. They have lots of great parts, but of course most come from EURO spec vehicles.
They're certainly worth consulting as a resource if you're interested in salvaged parts.
