IPD gone downhill? 700 1990

Hey gang as a former owner of a 1979 RX-7, I have to say you we have it pretty good as far as even having more than one choice. There was ONE place to find new/repro parts and that was MazMart and they priced like the Mazda dealers. Before it was over, I knew every wrecked 79 RX-7 within 60 miles of Birmingham.
Being new as a Volvo owner, I have gotten to know IPD, VolvoWorld, The Volvo parts site and a host of others. I do price shop, usually because I never have just one item I need and not everybody has everything. My first (and only so far) order with FCP groton had one screw-up (sent a non-turbo lower radiator hose when I said turbo 3 times)
but I'm sure I'll order again. I've had great experiences with a place out of Atlanta, Voluparts (www.voluparts.com). Their prices were really good and regular UPS is a day or 2. And if I got in a real bind, it's only 2-1/2 hrs to Atlanta.

And there is always E-Bay.

Later On.
