I called them and they said they had would be sending the part that day. I asked for a refund for the 2 day delivery since they did not get it to me in that time frame and they would not. They offered to go half's on the extra fee. I told them to take the charge off completely or cancel the order. Long story short, order was canceled and I will NEVER use that business again. They are crooks & have lousy shipping and customer service.

I believe it it s a service Bizrate sells. Do not blame the Internet retailer for Bizrate’s sleazy practices. I usually fill out the survey and decline any "special" offers. An Internet retailer that I have used since the 1970s (using a catalog and a phone) uses Bizrate to get feedback, and the retailer is one that I trust wholeheartedly after 30+ years of doing business with them. Bizrate is a bit sleazy, but the retailers are simply trying to gauge customer satisfaction. I hope this helps.
