Mac's tends to be high, they are a HUGE company with a lack of personal service. I rebuild originals for people, but will sell outright without a core. I sell reproduction parts and don't have the huge overhead, so I try to undercut the big guys whenever I can so I can help the little guys. I will sell you a rebuilt starter for $250 with the bendix and waive the fee for no core. There is a lot to rebuilding a starter CORRECTLY and I do them on a good day in about six hours. There are little things that people skip that give them problems later. It all adds up. Like I said call or email and we can visit, hopefully you can come to Brainerd next Saturday.
