One poster found it on the internet for 55, I found one for just over 50 for genuine gm part. I'm sure they're making money.

Well, I would hope they're making money, that's what keeps the doors open. They aren't going to stay open very long selling a $55 for $60.
My point was that if the internet price is 50, and they're making money, then the dealer paid a lot less for the piece of rubber. This was in response to someone questioning the original price.
Im not sure how this happens but it does. I recently bought a new Ford Motorcraft fuel pump in the Ford box from Rockauto. My friend is the parts manager at our local Ford dealer and he showed me his cost on the same thing. I bought it for $45.00 below his cost.:h
