I noticed that you just registered, and that your only posts are about this
"great deal".

I feel that the only reason you are here is to attempt to drum up business for something that you yourself will profit from.

When something seems to good to be true, it is probably a scam.

Your product might last just long enough to strand someone far from home.

Lol!! I joined this site when I purchased my first maxima back in sept. Dont know why you are attacking me,when you havent a clue what your talking about. I just thought someone might like to know about a good deal,that I took advantage of when my alt. took a crap last week. Is this how you treat everyone? I also introduced myself when I first joined this site. Have a good day

last week? so you've been using this alternator for one week and you can guarantee that's it's not ****? because maxima's are very picky about the parts you put in them, especially electrical parts, oem or bust on ANY electrical component, report back in three months when you stuck up **** creek with a failed alternator from a company being run by a twelve year old Chinese boy working for mcnuggets and bathroom breaks

i too want to hear back from you in a few weeks on how this "great deal" is holding up. i used 2 $90.00 alternators from napa and the second one's been holding up for over 2 years. lifetime warranty as well. i suspect the oil leak was the cause of the first one failing. o, and i hit 5,555 posts when i posted in here, woot!!!!

working great so far,have put about 250 miles on it so far. I know the price is throwing everyone off. The alt. is brand new and even come with a test sheet. I was recommended this company by a friend whos been using them a good while with good results. Try one for yourself, 25 is not a bad price to know for sure instead of just writing it off as junk.

It's only been 3 weeks
and
if it did fail, I seriously doubt you'd tell us based on the overall vibe in this thread.

No im an honest person. I just wanted to share this with anybody who needed a alternator. Because I got one and as stated before, a friend has used this co. before. The negativity is stunning.

Is it really negativity or do we just not trust what you're saying?
We have been around the site long enough to see plenty of alternator failure threads.
Usually Autozone.

I wouldn't risk it personally.
It's no fun replacing an alternator.

I have a 120Amp alt from Napa that has proven itself for years.

More often than not, you get what you pay for.

Yeah until i see an outpouring of good reviews i wouldnt trust in this. The amazon listing has been up for months but has relatively few reviews, some of which look as though they were made by the sellers themselves (generic names, same date posted). The QA section is also filled with mostly nonsense.

Its too good to be true. If it really did work so well for so cheap, and its been around for months at the very least, then why does it have so few reviews? People would be all over this. Plus, big name companies would be dropping their prices to compete with such a good product at such a low price. Its just not adding up.

The cynics here could all be wrong, but unfortunately the evidence so far says stay far far away.
