[QUOTE="rpf500, post: 614367, member: 6870"] There was a thread on harnesses the other day and it reminded me of some PRP 5.3's I bought a few weeks ago on Amazon. I thought I would mention this so you guys might benefit from it. I was also talking about it to some guys at the Hardline ride and it seemed like everyone had noticed this, but never used it. That said, when you are on Amazon sometimes items will have a comment "New from $xx" or "Used from $xx". If you click on that, it will bring up some more details about it. Sometimes, it's a fluke and there is shipping or other things that cause it to be more expensive. Most of the times I have looked though, it's legit. I had seen the USED in the past but never looked in to it. Then one day I decided to try it and figured worst case I would send the item back. That was when I bought the PRP harnesses. When they arrived, the box had been trashed somewhere along the lines and it was taped up with an Amazon sticker that said "INSPECTED". When I opened them they appeared to have never had the rubber bands taken off them. I finally found what was "used" about them. They both had the paint scratched off around the bolt hole areas. So for whatever reason someone returned them and along with the beat up box, they were deemed "USED" and I got a damn good deal on them for $72.03 each. There was absolutely nothing else wrong with them that I could find and not even 1 spec of dirt or anything, anywhere. Of course not all items would be something I want to have a scratch or something on, but in most cases on Jeep parts, I am for sure taking the deal. I got some rotors for my tow pig and a power steering pump for my YJ. I took a screen shot of the pump so you can see where the "USED" is that I am talking about. And Yes, I paid $25.00 and all I can find wrong is a hole in the box. Hope this helps some of you guys out. [/QUOTE]
