A NAPA dealer get it's pricing guidelines from NAPA.
They are:
1. dealer cost
2. whole sale (for mechanic shops)
3. average resale (what most walk in customers pay)
4. resale (what NAPA says they should sell for to the walk in customer)
5. List (what the mechanics are supposed to mark them up to when figuring out a repaid bill). You would have to see whole sale pricing compared to list....WOW!!! :shock: :shock: :shock: That makes being a mechanic a legal means of stealing! :o :o :o
Now the dealer can sell at what ever price they want so it's the dealer not the NAPA Corp. Same thing with small engine parts, The maker sends out a price list telling the shop what they consider to be retail but the dealer is under no obligation to sell at those prices. My son needed a new carb for a Briggs engine. He was quoted $80. I called the place I buy from and picked it up for him......for $26.
NAPA gold series filters are WIX
NAPA Oil is Valvoline
Most internal and some ignition parts for Kohler engines are actually Kohler parts.
My youngest son ordered a tranny rebuild kit for a Chrysler 904A auto from NAPA today under my account.....83 dollars. They sell that kit at retail for 129 and average resale at 97.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
