Default Nissens radiator question

Two different vendors - appears to be the same item (Nissens 64313A). $70 price difference.

RockAuto = $219 shipped.

Lucky8 = $290 shipped.

Am I missing something?

Just different vendor markups. They're the same radiator regardless of where you get it.

I've order two Nissens in the past.... one from BPUtah (about 6years ago), then another from RockAuto last year. I agree with andino.... they look to be the same. The last one has a label that showing "Nissens Denmark".

It's useful to understand RockAuto is an aggregator. RockAuto doesn't actually stock anything; it's a "front" for other parts sellers. Think of it like Amazon Marketplace.

Those individual sellers may be offering a deal on items they are trying to close out / clear out. That's how I got a set of STI wires for just $11.00 a few years ago.
