I recently read on another forum that they credit you the ORIGINAL purchase price, not the current.

FCPs LRG policy changes have me looking other places more frequently for parts... I buy parts frequently, but I don't like the new policy changes.

Agreed. They used to be my defacto parts supplier. $3-5k per year. Not anymore. Though they have lowered their prices ~10% so I still do order from them. Just not exclusively.
