If you were wondering why an air-cooled VW parts warehouse is doing a Blog, I would have to say that we really enjoy what we do and the people we get to meet. There is something about air-cooled VW folks? Most of you know we are located in Tucson Arizona and that we have a very long hot summer, and all day long we have customers who drive their cars to our store with out air-conditioning and engines that don’t have radiators. They come in with a big smile on their faces and wipe a little sweat off their brow and they are always happy. I can only imagine working at a GM, Ford dealership and listen to their clientele with the whole customer base that has no A.C. It would be crazy!!!!!

So once we get past the small difficulties of running a small business and the 6 O’clock bell rings and the money is all counted and we switch on the parking lot lights, we can say to our selves, I helped a lot of nice folks today.

I have always wondered about this topic. Here are my thoughts and please follow it up. Here at Chirco we do a lot of mail order business where we only speak to our customers on the phone and never see their cars. They call up and ask for some basic part say a master cylinder or a wheel cylinder and we have the parts in both German and a Brazilian make. The German one cost sometimes twice the money and probably should last twice as long. So we ask if they would like the German or Brazilian and of course the next question is how much.
We answer with the Brazil one is $x.xx and the German one is $x.xx x 2. Sure enough 50% of the customers choose one or the other. Please share you thought on the benefits of purchasing either German or Brazilian.
