Where to buy OEM parts
Hey Benzos, has anyone bought OEM parts, brakes pads specifically, from somewhere other than a dealer? Pads from the dealer are 650, but I'm finding the same part number supposedly OEM at a few different sites for like 350, which I find hard to believe the price difference would be that much. Two of the sites are below. What am I missing here?

Thanks!

Both of your links are MB dealerships, "hiding" behind a somewhat transparent generic web interface. If you search for the addresses on their "contact us" info page, you'll find they are:
- Sears Imported Autos Mercedes-Benz (Minneapolis area)
- Mercedes-Benz Atlanta South

Why is the other dealership charging you 650 for the same part? They don't call them stealerships for nothing...

Ha. I wondered why so many of those sites looked exactly the same. Didn't think that far. Yeah that's strange. Maybe I'll call them and get them to confirm the price. Thanks!

Yeah I'm not counting on it. I'm sure there's something weird about it. I called another dealer near me, and they are selling them for 510, so I know I can already get those. I can't believe there is that much a price difference between dealers.
