I ordered the part on Jan 8th in the hours before business hours. I intentionally waited to make the 1 hour drive to pick the part up at 2pm in which in my mind gave them enough time to locate the part and have it available for customer pickup. When I arrived, I was notified that the part couldn't be located and I immediately asked if this was a result of an inventory mistake and how long would it take for them to figure out whether or not if them that FITPARTS actually had the part or if there was an inventory mistake. The lady immediately told me that it would take an hour to sort the issue out. I communicated that it was urgent that I received the purchased part by COB and if they could provide delivery if the part was found or an immediate refund if it wasn't found. Her only solution provided was for the part to be shipped but she couldn't guarantee an urgent delivery solution. I left the facility only to be called roughly 10 minutes later and the lady stated that the part was located. I again asked for a workable solution as the part was an urgent need and I felt that a solution catered to the customer should be provided since the inconvenience was due to their lack of workmanship. Again, no workable solution was provided. Hence, I communicated that I would again take the hour drive which included a loss of time, effort, and money for gas, which in turned was the only workable. Her only solution was to have it shipped for free with an ETA that didn't work for the customer. The next day, I entered the office and received a rude and unprofessional experience. I greeted the employees only to receive a look filled with aggression. On my way out the door, the 2 employees that didn't return my greeting, followed me out the door. They both just stared at me as they lit up their cigarettes to smoke. They both continued with the tough looks as I left. I felt that they attempted to intimidate me since I questioned if I could be provided a solution that included FITPARTS sharing the expenses associated with the customer having to return to their facility due to a preventable inventory issue. At this time, the vender will not conduct anymore business with FITPARTS due to the rude and unprofessional actions of their associates.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re sorry for the inconvenience you encountered during your pickup. While we understand that timing was critical for you, our facilities handle a high volume of daily orders, and inventory verification can occasionally take additional time to ensure accuracy. When the part was located, we offered complimentary shipping as an alternative solution. Unfortunately, we were unable to guarantee a same-day delivery timeframe that would meet your specific deadline, and we understand that this was not the outcome you were hoping for. We appreciate your feedback, as it helps us improve our processes and customer experience. If you’d like to discuss this further, please reach out to us at [[email protected]], and we’ll be glad to assist.
