Pelican Parts Tracking Order Status

Bought a Targa top seal for my '82 911. It was sold as Porsche Genuine Parts and it matched per their sales person and website.The Price was $ 600! It did not match, not even close, additionally on delivery it was already torn and bore no bag tag or label with the Porsche trademark; leading me to doubt it was really a Porsche OE part. A bit of pushback on the return.

Update I changed my review rating from 1 star to 4 star because they did attempt to remedy my problem. They refunded the shipping cost on my second order and if any duties incurred they said they would pay. It does go some way to remedying the problem as the shipping cost was large. This is what you expect to happen. So maybe they have turned the corner in terms of poor customer service. Time will tell. I will give them another go as the shipping options are good, I just be more careful on checking my cart is correct. They wrote “ We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you. We really dropped the ball on this order and want to make it right. We have refunded the shipping cost on order. If there are any duties/taxes paid, please attach the receipt to this message so that I may review with our management team.” - Original review I order some items and somehow when checking out my cart an item (scanner) got added to my cart and the item I actually had order removed. At the time I should have checked more throughly the correct items were in my cart. At the time I thought they were just suggestions, and could ignore. My advice check your cart before hitting buy. I contacted their help desk straight away via email, but by the time they responded they conveniently said the order had already been dispatched from the warehouse. I put a new order for the missing item, and received a confirmation message that my two orders were flagged to be combined. Which suggests my first order hadn’t left the warehouse at all. But the response back from their customer support contact again was sorry no the orders weren’t combined to save on postage, sorry for the inconvenience. Let alone the expense. I probably won’t use them again simply cause their cart system is unreliable. Things you didn’t add get added and things you put in your cart are removed. Their customer support are to slow to make corrections to orders. I am an international customer so maybe if US based they ok. I will say their postage options are more affordable and a greater range of delivery options than other stores. So on that angle they worth trying. Just be very careful to check you cart. I was going to give them a two star rating as mistakes can happen ie give them the benefit of doubt. But on reviewing other reviewers posts, they known for poor customer service. So one star it is.

Katie Ly was my sales representative. She was excellent. She took my order of numerous parts for two of my cars. We exchanged phone calls a few times and she was always pleasant and responsive, even when I left her messages. She even helped me secure my cyber Monday discount. Excellent customer service experience.

Ordered parts for a late 90s Bimmer. Had to call for help, hard to find what I needed on website - category groupings are not especially helpful. Most parts were original BMW so that was nice. What I’m most disappointed in is the shipping. Ordered on a Saturday, shipped on Monday, expected to arrive a week later on Monday. That really delays my project another weekend. Pelican Parts should call Late Model Restoration for help with shipping. They ship almost everything for free and it arrives in two days. Guys need parts quick - a week plus for shipping is crazy. Is it coming by horse???

Usually have what you need for your German vehicle but don’t expect to install your part anytime in the near future if you live on the East coast.18$ shipping is a bit much for a $40 order that after a week still waiting.
