So the seals in the AC compressor are gone. It's leaking out in less than 24 hours.

Pricing compressors, dryers, orifice tubes etc. from local suppliers. Thought, what the hell let's look on fle-bay.

This complete kits, minus 134, is only about $15 more than I can get just the compressor for. There are others that are even less.

I know you have heard this before.......you get what you pay for. Personally I never buy cheap parts. You're just asking for trouble.

Granted. But when the same part, brand and model number varies from $160 less than I can get it locally to $100 over what I can get it for locally, where should one draw the line?

And locally to me is a minimum 50 mile drive round trip drive to the store at $4/gal.
