Cataloging
What exactly is a core charge?
The core charge is a refundable fee that is charged on a part that can be remanufactured or recycled. Once the old part has been replaced, simply bring it back to your local store in the original packaging with the receipt and the core charge will be refunded to you.
I paid sales tax on a core, do I get that back?
According to state laws, sales tax must be computed on the total gross proceeds including the value of core. No refund of sales tax is permitted when the core is returned.
Can you tell me what part number fits?
If you are unable to find a part in electronic cataloging, only the parts professionals at our Auto Value and Bumper to Bumper Parts Stores will be able to tell you if a part fits and / or if it's in stock. Please contact your local store for part related and lookup information.
Why do I have to choose a store?
You do not have to select a preferred store to add a product from one of the catalogs to your shopping list. However if you want to check inventory on an item, you will have to select a store. Electronic Cataloging also returns store and warehouse inventory and therefore requires that you have a store selected. If a store is not selected, you will be interrupted briefly, to choose a store and may continue shopping the site.
