Looking to order some parts and I can get everything I need with free shipping from THMotorsports. I've never ordered from them before and looking on line most of the reviews are either "absolutely horrible" or "the best experience ever." I have found the same items at other vendors for similar prices but it would require me to order from 3 different vendors and pay shipping for each order. WWGRMD?
They don't actually stock anything. They're a glorified carpet bombing middleman.
Seen the hit and miss experiences first hand. I'd go for it, but be sure to pay in a manner that lets you take care of business if they happen to screw you.

This is all correct and good advice. I have a friend that worked there (they're based locally) and never had issues. This is likely due to dealing solely with my friend when he worked there.
Yeah, it looks like there are now a lot of vendors following that business model, especially for import parts. What about Corsport? They look to be similar (with potentially a small inventory) but have somewhat better reviews. I don't need the parts immediately as they are preventive maintenance at this point, but one never knows how long it will be before that situation becomes more critical.
Corsport or Corksport? Corksport is a legit Mazda specialist that designs their own stuff and typically keeps a good inventory in stock at their warehouse.
Let's play a fun game: What car are you working with and exactly what are you doing/ordering?
In reply to Swank Force One:
Corsport
2000 Toyota Celica GT looking for a radiator (preferably with aluminum tanks welded on instead of plastic or crimped on) and strut/shock inserts for all 4 corners.
I've bought stuff from thmotorsport, cheaper for good stuff but there is 0 interaction with them since its set up as a sell through.
THMotorsport is a drop shipping facilitator and nothing more, but I've always got my parts in the 4-5 times I've ordered. YMMV.
