About 3 years ago I needed to replace a part on the mowing deck of my riding lawn mower, and I pulled my maintenance manual, knew the exact part number I needed, and went to a local service place to order the part for me. To my knowledge, I never did an internet search for the part because I figured there was no point.
Amazon just recommended the exact part to me.

Did you previously buy the lawnmower online? Â Maybe that model has a tendency for that to break - but yours did three years sooner than averagw - and Amazon has just been waiting to link you this whole time?

Ha, I didn't even realize you had a link in there... my brain subconsciously refuses to see times that you link things.

One of the nuts from the guard on my chainsaw vibrated off the other day, so I just hit amazon and searched "poulan 18 chainsaw parts" to see if they sold replacement parts.
One of the options on the front page was a DVD of "The Evil Dead."
I approve.
