Re: MAC's Model A parts and Service - Any Good Reports?
Mac's catalog is the best one that I have seen. I am satisfied with the one order that I have placed with them.

That's real close to a quote my father would always say.

Yes Tom, a few individuals have their own agenda to attempt to bring attention to themselves. They want to look good at someone else's expense. It's always the same individuals. Wayne.

If you buy cheap, you get cheap.
Who the supplier is does not matter. I have no problem with any supplier and can't tell you who I buy the most from. |

Re: MAC's Model A parts and Service - Any Good Reports?
Another order arrived today from Mac's, with parts from Bratton's (starter contact).
Water pump rebuild kit in back order (I don't understand that these parts are not in stock, especially Model A water pump kit !) |

Re: MAC's Model A parts and Service - Any Good Reports?
Did you call them? If you are not satisfied patronize another vendor instead of getting yourself all worked up. Why do you care whose package it is in ? Why don't you call before you order to see if it is in stock? Don't sweat the trivial things! Wayne

This is the way it is now in small business. You would not believe how many $$$$ a small business has in inventory on the shelf. They simply cannot afford to have cash tied up in products that do not move quickly. This means that they order the part from their supplier after they get an order at the counter. They are fortunate if they have a warehouse they can go to, but the warehouse has the same problem. I don't think that will change. From the recent news about how Mac's is moving things around it is very likely that they are doing most of their business this way. The times, they are a'changin'. |

As Archie Bunker replied to his meathead son-in-law's condescending remark ("Face it, Arch. The world is changing."): "And every time it changes, it kicks me in the butt." True. Very true. Most changes in the world are NOT for the better.

Re: MAC's Model A parts and Service - Any Good Reports?
Until today I got good parts by them, no problems at all. Also, a Snyders 5:5 Head and a MikesAFordable Oil-Filter with much cheaper freight rates to Europe than Snyders or Mikes.
So they deal also with quality parts.

Re: MAC's Model A parts and Service - Any Good Reports?
I have ordered from all or most of the vendors including Mac's. I have had good results with Mac's as I have had with all the other vendors. But like mentioned above, their catalog is the best in the business.

Re: MAC's Model A parts and Service - Any Good Reports?
Did you ever think that possibly the new one is being introduced. If you are a customer you don't have to order, it is automatically sent to you. Were you ordering just a catalogue. Wayne

Re: MAC's Model A parts and Service - Any Good Reports?
Most of the people here on the fordbarn would complain if they were hung with a new rope! I have ordered a lot from macs and other suppliers. They have all been good to deal with and yeah, I've had a few issues, all were taken care of to my satisfaction. I own a small business, it's HARD trying to make some people happy, impossible for others. You really learn to appreciate the understanding customer when something goes wrong. If you call or email macs, they are very straightforward about specific parts quality or lack thereof. Use the brain you have and life gets much easier.
