Absolute disgrace of a business. Parts ordered. No tracking number sent. Parts never delivered. They dont answer the phones. Don't respond to the automated texts. Requested a refund through the website and received nothing. Thankfully I paid through PayPal and have requested a refund through them so I should get my money back. Be warned. Do not buy from this bunch of theives.
Website says item in stock ( Subaru radiator hose), pay for the item and 4 weeks go by, I call them several times- no answer, all you get is text messages. I try to get a refund so I logged a help desk ticket and still no communication. Then you get text messages, saying we are looking into it. Finally I get the part 6 weeks later but I have already purchased one so not required anymore.
I placed an order and paid on their website. I have received the order confirmation and paid for express post. Followed up twice, no response, called the number and texted via their text contact number and received a message stating "We are not open right now, but will get back to you as soon as we can. My order is of small dollar value, but I… Read more
hate to think how I would feel if my order were larger and there was no way to get a refund other than disputing the change via my bank. Stay away from this mob.

Not what I expected – Not what I expected for $59. Just stickers. Protective ? Will see in time I suppose.
Satisfied customer – Maybe a bit longer to wait on the parts but I was delivered a Genuine Ford mirror glass for a Ute I cant get parts for in the UK, it was a genuine item as advertised and other than taking a bit longer than I'd hoped - it got here intact.
BT50 Part – Got a LHF window Weatherstrip Great communication and postage with tracking will definitely buy from again
Latest follow-ups
Have used them in the past without issues, but I will not purchase parts from them again now. No one answers the phone, and the text messages are generic and evasive. The parts still have not been dispatched after 8 days, and I paid extra for express shipping. Very disappointed and cannot recommend at all.
Follow-up · No one has ever bothered to contact me, and thanks to PayPal I receied a full refund

STAY AWAY ZERO CUSTOMER SERVICE! Why didn't i look here first and heed your advice. I ordered a part from Australian online Car Parts on the 2nd of December and still waiting on any information. The part only costing $9.00 plus $23.00 postage from a Sydney address to Sydney address. Buy from local business support the local business. This is… Read more
where the service STOPS, we have your money to hell with customer service. after numerous attempts to contact via phone and text all you get is an A.I generated B.S. text promising to get back to you "I'm still waiting" for that promised call/text. I am beginning to thin the whole thing is a scam.
I'm more than happy to discuss this with Australian Online Car Parts if only they would answer the phone!
Merry Christmas
Should be a 0 star. Place an order and wait, nothing. Follow up order and no reply. Follow up again and get told can't supply, they will refund. Then i have to email to back to ask the simple questions of when i might get the refund. Finally i gave up and refunded through Paypal and bought elsewhere. Wish i had read the reviews first...

Placed an order in November, haven't heard from them or received any updates. You can't get hold of anyone on their "customer service" number or email address. Did a charge back for the order. Complete waste of time.

I am very disappointed to have bought from them. It's been 2 week since my purchase and there have been no updates. They don't answer messages or phone calls. Don't buy from them, save your money and time.
Ordered parts from this supplier - can only say STAY AWAY from this supplier. Have tried all week to get in touch with them to find out about the part I ordered. Have tried online, via phone, sms and email - they DO NOT REPLY AT ALL. STAY AWAY - if I could give minus/negative stars I would - even 1 star seems to be to much.
Had a problem with their other site, The Car Parts Shop, and was shunted to this mob's support line. Tried ringing them, straight to voicemail, multiple times, we will ring you back, NOOO. Tried email multiple times to finally get aresponse. Yes they refunded my money, but gave me a link at a price a lot dearer than what they listed the correct… Read more
part for on their other site CPS. Re-ordered the correct part through CPS only for 14 days later to be still waiting with no communication and no part. KEEP AWAY FROM BOTH MOBS
Do not purchase from this website! Have been waiting since 25th July for parts to arrive. Have had to sort advice from fair trading and they have had numerous complaints about this company. Going to bank to sort a refund! Buy elsewhere guys!
Do not buy your online car parts from this company. Took my payment and only received one reply to my question of when are you sending my item which was we are looking into it. So Had to get a refund via PayPal
⚠️ wARNING!!! – WARNING email address is not active they will not answer phones . I tryed to make a purchase here it discounted me 100% I alerted them instead of thanking me and hounering the order they said it was a mistake it's been corrected they won't send my item now I'm out 38 dollars for express post and stuck over wkend with no car absolutely pathetic steer well clear of these scammers
Potential Scam – Ordered and paid for item and received confirmation email. Then absolutely nothing. Emailed three times without a response and had to get credit card issuer involved. Appears to be a scam website
If you're in a hurry for your car part - shop somewhere else – A friend contacted this company in advance of my order to receive written confirmation delivery of my part would take 2-3 days. Rubbish! 10 days later the tracking system confirmed it was still listed as "PACK." Their website indicated my delivery was free at the time of payment. No. I made contact. An invoice of $32 was sent and paid, and… Read more
delivery was promised ASAP. No. One more week. "PACK" status unchanged. I made contact again. It took three weeks! I award one extra star for the unidentified texting human who kept me somewhat informed.

This company is a scam – Ordered a part which they did not have. They offered an alternative which didn't fit what I was after so I requested a refund. After 3 emails requesting a refund and a month later - all have gone without reply or acknowledgement. Have organised a charge dispute with the bank. Zero customer service. Borderline scam. Do not buy from them.
unprofessional & terrible service – I was trying to get help about few spare parts , lady on phone was rude and aggressive with me and she said it’s painful to talk with me , im not recommended this service , terrible service be careful it’s fraud
Won’t refund – Made 2 orders on the same day. Asked them to combine postage & refund excess which they agreed and were happy to do- I have proof via text messages. They sent all items in a aus post medium satchel. Didn’t refund my postage. I paid nearly $40 for postage which would have cost them under $10… asked them about where my refund is numerous times. they… Read more
don’t respond to my messages now. Don’t agree to something if you’re not doing to do it.. will buy elsewhere now. Can’t stand lying and fighting to get my money back.
Reliable business to deal with – Ordered car part for my Mazda CX5 online 26.01.24 and received it on 2.2.24. They were recommended to me and I would now happily recommend them to anyone looking to order parts online.
Quality Parts – Ordered a commodore auto gear shift plate from these guys and could not be happier. Fit right on with no issues, postage was incredibly quick and communication around my purchase can not be faulted. If you need a car part, and a hard to find one, these are your people.
No enthusiasm to do business! – Emailed about a particular part with original honda part number and a question as to whether it was an oem part they were selling. I did get a response asking for my rego/VIN even though I knew which part I was asking about. Since I had the time I decided to call and expedite the answers to my questions. I was met by someone on the other end of… Read more
the line who said the person I was dealing with via email works from home and that I should wait until they get back to me otherwise she would just be doubling up on their work! I explained I wanted to sort this out sooner rather than later but she was not interested in helping. If they have your parts and you get them, good for you. For me I won't give such an unhelpful and unenthusiastic mob my patronage.
Avoid at all cost, no communication – They sell you parts that they don't have in stock and you wait around for weeks until they post your purchase. Don't use them.
Avoid at all cost, no communication and no exchange or refund for sending the wrong part's – Purchased a water pump for my vehicle and they sent me the wrong one, contacted them and said they would attend to the matter, weeks later nothing done. Contacted them again and was told one of their team member's would handle the matter and they were sorry for the problem. Months later no follow up messages or contact of any kind. They are not… Read more
interested in rectifying their mistakes and their postage price is outrages I was charged over $15.00 for three small plastic clips
Awful service, no part and no refund after 2 weeks – 1 week after ordering a part I chased it up because they hadn’t put any tracking info on, 3 days later I got a reply saying they would look into it and get back to me as soon as possible. 2 days later still nothing so I emailed again and they came back saying they couldn’t find the part, and could I wait another 24 hours! I said no I want a refund, it’s been over 2 weeks still no refund! Please avoid this company.
Would have still been waiting – Ordered some disc pads on a Monday, by Friday of that same week the order still had not been dispatched. I contacted the customer service dept and they assured me that they would prioritize the dispatch. Forward to Tuesday, 8 days after placing the order, and the order was still not dispatched. Ended up canceling and ordered elsewhere
No clue or just liers – I purchased brake pads from this seller. They use “ snparts14” as their name on eBay. I asked for and clarified the pads where ceramic with have bonded rubber shims before making my purchase.and was assured they where ceramic with rubber shims. They turned up With steel shims and what looked like bits of copper in the pad. Indicating it probably… Read more
was not ceramic as the point of ceramic is no steel or copper in the pads.was told I got what I ordered. Getting the refund was tedious. Avoid this seller unless you enjoy munching around with returns and being lied to.
