I see a thread from time to time where the topic is IH dealer prices. The most popular opinion seems to be that we should all bow down in thanks to the dealers for continuing to offer parts for our old iron. Granted, there is a cost associated with everything including keeping parts available for which there is a limited demand but somewhere lies the line between a fair price and shameless gouging. It is to the dealer's advantage to know how high to go since beyond that line I will do anything in my power to find an alternative to being raped. With the internet, I am not limited to local IH dealers and I have found a vast difference in pricing for the same part. I won't name names but I will never again deal with my local IH store that wanted $30 for a snap ring that I eventually found for $3.50 from another IH dealer. I understand supply and demand, what I don't understand is why a dealer would chase away a guy that spend hundreds of dollars a year to try to make a few extra bucks out of greed.
