"My experience was great with this company. The customer service helped identify what part I was looking for. I received the exact part I needed based on the support service. The shipping was efficient especially because I had shipping method options. It was also a plus for me because they are on a different time zone compared to EST (Eastern Standard Time). Overall it was a good experience and I would use them again."

"I was desperately searching for an obsolete part and came across the FamousParts website. It was easy to use and there are even pictures of the parts which is very helpful! I called and spoke to a nice man and he helped me select the correct part. It was reasonably priced and arrived exactly when they said it would. Great service. I will definitely use them again."

"I needed a specific ignitor part for my furnace, and Famous Parts had an excellent search engine and good pictures. Order was well packaged and promptly shipped.
Good price on the part.

The only critique I would have is that for a very light part their shipping and handling costs were expensive relative to other sites.

"I ordered a replacement control board for a Goodman Furnace late Wednesday night. (21:16:07 EDT) The board was on my doorstep before noon on Friday. The price was lower than anything I could find at the local dealer or in any city in Kansas. Cheap and fast are a rare combination. An exact brand name replacement (QUALITY) makes my experience an unbeatable one.

Thank you so much.

As for customer service, I called about the part and it turnded out that it had already been delivered. The gentleman on the phone was very gracious.

"Had the item I needed and shipping was very fast. Return process was not as smooth as I expected and communication could be better. In the end I'm satisfied and that's what counts."

"Hi,

We were extremly pleased with the quick delivery of our most recent order from FamousParts. Our concern that because this was an export request that confusion would reign and it would take weeks for the goods to arrive...not the case...recieved within 48 hours.
Thanks.

"After seeking professional advice on the reason my water heater was no longer working, I purchased a HS780 17NL -304A Ignition control module for our Rheem hot water heater from Famous Parts and fitted it myself.

Unfortunately the water heater would still not work so I called in another plumber.

After checking everything and me insisting it was not the control module. The plumber replaced the module with another new one. The water heater immediately started to function correctly.

The next day I contacted Famous Parts to get an RMA number to return the defective part. I've contacted them twice more. No reply.

I don't expect them to pay my plumbers bill. I'd just like a refund for the defective part.

Very disappointed at the total non response and, of course I'll never, ever, buy from them again....

And as the saying goes....when you're happy, tell three people. When you're not tell 30 - or 3 million.

May 2011

By shear coincidence we had purchased a house in Casa Grande. Therefore, around February 15th 2011 I delivered the defective part to the Famous Parts office. I met Mr XXXX the owner and the conversation was cordial. He took back the part but stated in his opinion there was nothing wrong with it and that I and (I assume) the professional plumber did not know how to install it. Anyhow he stated the purchase price would be refunded to my paypal account as he typed away on his computer.

About 10 minutes later, Mr XXXXX called me and asked if I would revise my review of the transaction. I said I would as I was generally pleased with the meeting despite his explanation of the issue and he had stated my monies would be refunded. I further asked if he would send me a link to the URL as I had a different computer with me than the one I had used to write the original review. He said he would.

Well he never sent the link and never refunded my money even though I hand delivered the defective part back to his office.

"This was my first time buying from FamousParts.com I don't do a lot of online shopping so obviously I was leary at first. I had a GREAT BUYING EXPERIENCE and will definately return in the future when I need a part again.

I was looking for a Robertshaw Ignition Control (Model#HS780 17NL-304A, Part#SP10758) for my Rheem Power Vent water heater. Their description, price & picture of the part on their web page was spot on, when my part arrived, it was exactly as they described it, no hidden surprises. Everything they said was true...even the free next day air shipping. I really didn't expect to see the part the next day because I was ordering sort of late in the day in my opinion. I placed the order at 3PM CST (I live in WI) and by 10 AM the next morning UPS had my part on my door step. I was very happy.

What was really nice is the e-mails I received from FamousParts giving me status updates on my order.

I placed my order at 3:00 PM CST, at 3:08 PM I received an e-mail with my order confirmation and a link to check on the current status of my order, at 4:27 PM received another e-mail stating I would be receiving a shipping tracking number soon, at 6:35 PM I received that e-mail with my UPS tracking number, at 10 AM the next morning UPS had my part on my door step! I was VERY IMPRESSED! Thanks FamousPars for making me feel more confident about making online purchases and thanks for getting me my part so quickly, I installed it that same night and it works great, Woo Hoo hot water again.

"1.) The online catalog is easy to use and provides adequate information about each item listed.
2.) This order was shipped and received very quickly.
3.) Communication and updates concerning the order were excellent.
4.) HOWEVER, one item - 15 /20 MFD. 440 VAC Dual
Oval Motor Run Capacitor @ $34.47 - has not yet been received. Although it is listed on the invoice as shipped, it was not in the package. On the packing slip, it was marked as B/O in black felt marker.
5.) I emailed the company TWICE about this missing item, and also offered to fax them a copy of the packing slip, and received NO RESPONSE. I'm not in a big rush for the cap, but a response would be nice.
6.) At this point, I want either the part I ordered or a refund of $34.47 plus shipping for that item.

Update on 9/20/10: The backordered capacitor has been received by me, and has been installed. I didn't need it all that quickly, and backorders happen, but I would have been happy with a short note to let me know it was on backorder, would be shipped when they got it, etc.
Will I order from these guys again? Yes, certainly - see 1 thru 3 above.
