                      Picked up a few Miata parts from their lot, they were really helpful and kind. Their prices are reasonable as well, taking into consideration that they take off the parts for you.

                      So i called in for a transmission, This slick man tells me that he has one for 900 but he doesnt "know" the mileage, I said okay let me get back to you on that because its more then the average price but if the mileage is good ill take it, he gave me the vin.The sneaky man ended up calling ME 30 minute later telling me he will give it to me for 800$ , the price locally transmisisons are going for at 120k-140k.  When i KINDLY start to tell him why im not interested and would only pay around 400$ because the car has 230,000+ miles on it  he hangs up the phone. Clearly you wanted to get over on somone with a 230k+ mile transmission and im almost possitive you have the mileage if you had the vin.Becarefull, Carfax the vins dont believe the story they tell you.

                      Well, they don't let you in the yard anymore. That's bad. They didn't have anything I was looking for. But I've found in my travels that I sometimes I find things that I didn't know I wanted. Their loss not mine.

                      Well all I can say is great service for a difficult business!  John at A Affordable along with the men working there did whatever they could to help me with  what I needed. Keep up the great work! At least you see what you are getting and don't have to try and send it back, or throw it on the shelf because it costs to much to ship back. Thank you A Affordable see you soon.

                      A Affordable Auto Parts team take the time to do it right in customer service. I needed a add on part for a 8 year old Car. John went out to the yard to check if the add on part I needed was on the (close in year) model they had. Yes and Yes,  my trip to pick up the part was worth it. Thank you John for the great follow through.

                      Nice yard. Nice people. Even had a return/exchange on an engine they pulled for me. We discussed my concerns with the engine, professionally, and ultimately the engine was exchanged. No charge. No hassle. I'd definitely use them again in the future.

                      Wouldn t sell me a part cause I was asking questions about it. Wanted to know if they had pictures to see if was right wanted money up front , and could not provide if was even good or not. Talking about they don t warranty these parts all I wanted to know if they valves in the head were bent simple to look and tell. But they seen me as a problem. And also took my credit card info first

                      If I could give no stars I would. When I called in these parts I told the guy I needed the support brackets and bezels for the front end of my e250. First off he brings me parts that are partly broken and cracked. Me being the person that I am I said I can work these parts. I go to install them and the upper bracket plastic support that mounts the grill isn t with the parts. The guy argued with me over the phone about what I needed and what the part was called. Also I had to walk out in the junkyard and tell his guy what part I needed. Totally unprofessional from business owner to business owner I wouldn t recommend this place to anyone. I paid over 400 for these parts the least they could do is show some customer service.

                      Fair Prices, these guys are friendly too boot. Really helpful in finding the parts you need. I got a 1999 Ford Explorer Axle for my Jeep TJ and they made it so easy to pickup! I wont even mess with the jerks at u-pull it anymore. This yard is really nice!

                      I called in to look for a transfer case for my Jeep and the guy was immediately annoyed with me because I didn't hear a question he asked. He then complained when I asked about the mileage on the used part as if I was wanting something for nothing. It shouldn't be a problem to inquire about my parts. Horrible service.

                      i went to this place last year and it was a very friendly place to get parts. friendly staff, good prices, etc. now, staff is very rude, short, and will not let you go in unless you tell them what you need!! it is a JUNKYARD. you should be able to go in and get specific parts that you want. they wouldnt let me take 4 screws for a spark plug cover, a steering wheel, etc. i either had to buy the whole engine (which was a ridiculous price) or a whole steering column. wish it was the same way it was a year ago. never going back to this place again

                      Great people!  Items as described and they stopped what they were doing to make sure I got the right parts.  Worth the 2.5 hour drive.  Highly recommend!

                      One of the friendliest used car parts vendors in the Chicagoland area.  I purchased a steering rack for my Miata here and the gentleman, Ray, whom I spoke with on the phone was super patient and nice.  The steering rack was clean and I was assured that it was a solid piece.  After installing it on my car, they were right.  Their prices are very competitve and have a nice return policy.  However, their customer service is on point.  I know I will be coming here regularly just for that, even though this location is quite a ways from my home.  Good job guys, keep it up!

                      We bought 2 doors for my car at a lower price than competition and they also helped load them for us (which  was tricky  with space confines and very  windy weather). They were right off interstate 80, so easy to get to.

                      I went there for a cluster for my truck. When I got home installed it gas,oil,and rpm gauges did not work. Brought it back for exchange being electronic I can't get money back so I got exchange for another one that had double the miles. Rpm gauges works but not gas or oil guy says there must be something wrong with my truck. But funny how rpm gauge works great hhhhhmmm I won't being buying from here again

                      Part was very expensive.  The part on Ebay new was cheaper. I told the cashier but they said it was the best they could do.
