FWIW, my story of earlier today was for a windshield from Victoria
British. I regretted it and called Rick to beg forgiveness for the error
in my ways. That's when he told me that he had the same provider on the
windshield as everyone else at the time.
That said, I never bought another part from anyone other than Rick after
that.
