+1 on Pelican. They have one of the largest inventories, IMO.
I've also used Vertex in Miami for years. Sid Gonzalez there is a great guy, very knowledgeable. I was in Miami last month and had a chance to meet him and his colleagues...All very well-informed folks!

I would love an East cost supplier too. I've ordered some generic bits from thepartsgeek.com (spark plugs, cap/rotor, brake rotors/pads, etc), have been very happy and they arrive within 3-days to Boston.
I've always had good luck with Pelican for more unique parts, but I just placed an order on the 18th and it isn't scheduled to arrive until the 27th...
DCautomotive in NC is competitively priced on a lot of parts and they have great used prices on things that are not subject to wear, but they are very slow in getting things out.
Local dealership is criminally overpriced.
I'll check out the suggestions listed.

Try Roger at 928sRus.com.
He gets his parts at the same place all the other vendors do, is usually cheaper and typically ships same day or next day. It's not only parts for 928's. Also a R-list sponsor.

Delaware has been my go-to lately but this newcomer popped up in a recent search-
https://www.oemluxuryparts.com
They seem affiliated with Princeton Porsche (NJ) and are similarly priced to the other discount genuine parts vendors.

Wayne has sold Pelican since his post a decade ago. The last time I ordered from Pelican, the parts shipped from North Carolina. That was a surprise to me, as I got spoiled by next-day delivery times from what used to be their LA-area warehouse. Now Pelican has warehouses in both CA as well as NC.

I think Pelican still ships all international orders from California which means if the part is in NC it first travels to CA and then gets shipped to Canada. Our normal ship time is measured in weeks unfortunately.

Is Delaware the only tax free option?

Not on the east coast per the original question of this thread, but as I located on the west coast, I buy my OEM parts from the dealership in Beaverton, OR. No tax. Prices about 25 percent off list. And the parts guy (Luke?) takes the time to let me know if there are updated parts numbers or other little doodads (parts) that are typically ordered with whatever project I seem to be doing.
