Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
Rock Auto shipping place close to COS?
Is there anyone close to COS that lives in an area that Rock Auto will ship to? I need to get some front strut assemblies for my Pilot and Rock Auto won't ship to a COS address any more.
Thanks.

Not what you asked, but I ended up using carparts.com and/or Amazon the last few times I had to order.
I tried a few different addresses in CO, including addresses not in the city. I don't think they ship to CO at all.

They ship to me, but I'm nowhere close to the springs.Originally Posted by Little Dutch
I've had no issues getting anything form Rock auto in DougCo.

They ship to non home rule cities. Or any city for which the state collects the taxes.
Could someone explain why they're not shipping to the 'springs?

YOU are the first responder. Police, fire and medical are SECOND responders.

The short story is Colorado made it a law that online retailers must collect both state and city taxes. Rock Auto decided they didn't want to play that game.'
Edit to add
Here is the error message I got back in Feb when I last needed to order something:
We cannot ship to this address because it requires sales tax paid separately to state and city governments. We comply with state-administered taxes nationwide but we do not have the capacity to file city tax returns in places where we have no physical presence.

Also, CO has a tax document that lists taxes for each county and city. I dont have a link to it anymore. If you find it it shows you which cities/counties are home rule, and which have state collect the taxes. Then look for one of those.
I always liked Rock Auto, but their shipping practices really started to highlight their other short comings. Namely, you CANNOT talk to a person about anything. Everything is done through the website. I have a return I wanted to send back because I no longer need it. I got an exchange instead as that was the option available.
Which is how they keep their prices so low. I got my last two shipments to an address of a friend out of the metro areas.
