M&S Auto Parts does not give out Vehicle Identification Numbers (VIN) because they claim they don't even store the VINs in their system. Giving out VINs to verify mileage on engines and transmissions is an industry wide practice that M&S doesn't follow because it keeps them from being held accountable for the mileage they claim on their parts. M&S even claimed that giving out a VIN was illegal.
Without a VIN on the part that you are purchasing you have no way of knowing if the mileage they are quoting you is true.
M&S also does not give refunds for their parts, only credit for a replacement assuming you got a warranty with the part. They only give 30 day warranties on some parts.
Pros: nice building
Cons: doesn't give out VIN numbers - no refunds
