OK, we have all bought from them...

We all know them...

Most of us love them...

I just got a package, shipped ground, less than 24 hours after I ordered it

HAD to go ground due to ATE blue brake fluid...

Maybe I need to request drop ship every time I order...

Paragon... We Love You

Jason is a god. He's been very accomodating and responsive. It's a very well run business.

OH, Travis at RennBay has been great as well... I was just shocked at a ground package showing up less than 24 hours after I ordered it!

True. We are fortunate to have such a fine support group (some might call them enablers) to help us feed our habit.

I put Pelican in there too. They usually have what is needed and service is good. Travis (Rennnnnnbaaaaaayy!) - is a freak. And I mean that in the nicest way, of course. Even if you've never met him - you could eventually reach that conclusion...

We'll see if Paragon has any magic left after the brake fluid surprise. They are claiming my wiper linkage part will arrive at my home on Saturday. If it shows up today - they will have bent the laws of physics to do so. I only got confirmation that they had it in their possession yesterday. Texas to Michigan, in one day? Probably not. If it shows on Saturday - I will be very happy.

Ok, hows this for a disregard for the laws of physics.

Ordered Koni strut inserts from Paragon on Thursday - here early Monday. And I live in Australia. I couldn't believe my eyes. I just hope they'll fit. Oh well, I'll find out in about 2 weeks. Paragon = big thumbsup..

They're very effective internationally, as well!
