I don't have many of the high dollar items to maintain but for the general parts and accessories I always find the part number by whatever means but first place I go look is AMAZON. They are my old Sears-N-Roebuck catalog.

What is this Roebuck you speak of? Just kidding. I used to spend countless hours looking at the toys, sporting goods, musical instruments, and more in their catalogs when I was a kid and young adult. It was the original Internet (minus the porn).

We have no nearby stores - JbrowlandExplorerI don't have a local place close by with a decent selection so Amazon is typically my go to place as well.
- RVMikeExplorerI used to do Amazon but our new dealer in Orange County Ca (DDRV) has great pricing and sometimes beats Amazon. Great selection and has a great inventory. If they don't have it, it will be there in one day and no freight charges.

It was the WORX main site. They shipped with two batteries and life time string modules (FREE for the ASKING)... After adding in the shipping and handling I could have almost done the same thing with AMAZON haha... AMAZON only offered ONE battery and they cost some $50 each....
Who knows haha...

Sometimes it's better to pay a little more if you get good service.

Just last week my ten year old weed wacker battery motor quit and AMAZON didn't really have the model I wanted so I ordered it from another internet site.

Can you please tell me which other internet site? I see the most used one is Amazon. - RoyBExplorer IIII don't have many of the high dollar items to maintain but for the general parts and accessories I always find the part number by whatever means but first place I go look is AMAZON. They are my old Sears-N-Roebuck catalog. With PRIME delivery is two days.. Shows up at the door with free delivery... Even if the door is out in the sticks somewhere..
What a deal huh...
Just last week my ten year old weed wacker battery motor quit and AMAZON didn't really have the model I wanted so I ordered it from another internet site. The shipping and handling was hugh even for normal shipping (2 weeks) ... I should have known better haha... The savings grace I guess is the local UPS and FEDX guys know where I live from all of my AMAZON orders haha
