Hi, I'm looking for shops that allow you to bring your own parts. Or is that not a thing anymore?

I used to regularly order my own parts when it was cheaper to get it from rockauto. I would ship it straight to the garage. Are there really garages that stop you from doing that?

The ones that make markup on parts as a profit point in a spreadsheet for sure don't want to lose that money.
