Default Ordering OEM parts

Have anyone ever ordered OEM parts from lexuspartseast.com? Is it a legit website? I saw lots of people are referring to Sewell Lexus and Carson Lexus and how lexuspartseast.com compares with these two in prices? Thanks for your advise.

Sewell and Carson have been around a long time....

Why not just order from them?

I've been obtaining quotes from both Carson and Sewell and www.lexuspartseast.com seems to have the best prices among the three. So I am wondering if this one is legit. Has anyone ordered parts from lexuspartseast.com before? What was your experience? Any input would greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I can't find a single record of anyone on CL ordering from them, or any other web reviews of them whatsoever...

May be a legit deal - they definitely did a lot of work on the site - it appears to be quite well done, but the lack of any experience from anyone anywhere is at least a caution flag, IMO...

Never orderd either from the one mentioned. Ordered plenty from Carson and Sewell over the years and no issues.
