The business was founded by former contractor Jason Maynard after he became frustrated with constantly searching for parts online that allowed him to stay competitive.
His goal was to offer the highest quality parts at the best prices. CSC has deals with Oregon and Stens, along with other manufacturers, to provide OEM parts.
“We really did our research, making sure this was something unique in the industry and not just another gimmicky ‘price club,’” said Brian Maynard, a partner in the business. “Funny enough, our biggest hurdle was people believing our prices. We are profitable on our membership access and are extremely confident that this a transparent win-win situation for both us and our members.”
Members pay $99 for access to manufacturers’ prices and $7.99 flat-rate shipping fee per order, regardless of the amount ordered.
Non-members can still receive competitive prices and CSC will price match. Non-members pay a $10.99 flat-rate shipping fee per order.
“On average, members save around 35 percent on their parts,” Jason Maynard said. “So, for anyone who spends more than $300 on parts, they are saving money. Well worth the membership price.”
