Yes. But i am also experienceing (eBay y Amazon) vendors that ship maybe 3 rod bearings from one place and one rod bearing from another place. ALL the SAME rod bearing made by the same mfg'er in identicle parts boxes shipped in different shipping boxes. Various other odd circumstamces too.

Vendors that sell parts under an unfamiliaarr aftermarket name but is stocked by yet some other "mom & pop warehouse/supplier. Actual parts that show up very well mite be well known naame brand parts or maaybe not.

I don't have a problem with it. Just trying to figure out the network strategy.

Some "obsolete" parts showing up with very recent mfg'er dates on them. Some no dates. It's quite a mixxed bag. Makes me wonder if maybe some of the more name brand mfg'ers attempting to supply the vintage market more than what was seen over the 1980-2005 time frame.
