Hard to review
September 16, 2025

I haven't even received my order yet and have gotten multiple emails every day wanting me to review the product. I have never had so many requests for a review without even getting my order

Hey Robert,
I apologize for the overwhelming number of marketing emails. I completely agree that you cannot review a product until you have received and installed it. I hope you have had a chance to do so by now and can provide us with a proper rating. We would greatly appreciate it!
Best regards,
Allison

Just about everything
September 15, 2025

I have used Eckler's for a long time, more so in the last couple months because I found a new project car. Some of the prices are outrageous, others are extremely generous. Find the balance, and Eckler's is pretty good (I am sad so many of the online vintage car shops have merged - I assume private equity firms, but who knows). Shipping is reasonable, and the one return I've had went smoothly (it was damaged in transit due to poor packaging - manila envelope instead of a box). They credit your store account and not your form of purchase, so be aware of that if you need to return an item.

Called Ecklers to find 1967 oil filter replacement. Taney C was very responsive finding my part in a few minutes. I would highly recommend Ecklers.

Review of recent interaction
September 13, 2025

Quickly was able to navigate and order the parts I was looking for. Attempted to use the chat feature but was directed to leave my number and look for a return call from a certain area code. Still no call.
Ordered the parts anyway but would have liked to order more. Could not verify so did not order

Hello Steve,
I'm sorry that you did not receive a call to assist you with purchasing our products. I see you have spoken to two different sales techs via chat after that, and they have assisted you with answering your questions and locating the products you inquired about. If you need any further assistance, please let us know.
