My 1997 850's abs module is on the fritz. Not a big surprise as these things go. I have read many positive posts on this board about Victor Rocha's services. He wants $125 plus $15 shipping to fix mine and offers a five-year warranty, plus he's had grand feedback around these parts. On the other hand, these guys on ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Volvo-850-C70-S60-S70-S80-V70-ABS-Ate-Repair_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33560QQihZ016QQitemZ260209279244QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW

Want $69 plus $20 for shipping which is for BOTH ways. They offer a lifetime warranty and are in Massachusetts, which is far closer to me than California (I'm in Ohio).

I'm not meaning to be harsh at all here, but in a free marketplace, what reasons would I have for choosing Victor over this other place? I'm all for supporting the little guy, but for nearly twice as much, I have to think twice...

Thanks for any thoughts,

Nate
