I didn't figure my response would get much praise from you....Marc.
I have not seen Rob's shop, so I don't know what he's got going over there.

Yeah, maybe the DMCH big building is a little ego based, who knows, but they 
are doing a good job of storing the parts and keeping them safe, keeping 
them categorized and ready for sale.
All I can tell you is that when I needed to buy the parts I needed, the east 
coast was of no help to me. When I told Rob that I needed a left front 
fender, and I had found one for $1500 he told me that he would match the 
price, if I would send him my old fender. What?
When I wanted to buy a hood, he said he wouldn't sell me one unless I both 
sent him
my old hood but bought the fender from him and sent him my old one too.
Gee whiz, what a deal.
Then he refused to to help me with my insurance adjusters unless I bought 
ALL of my parts from him, "I don't want to piece these parts out, it's all 
or nothing" he said.
It must be nice to be able to dictate the terms of business to your 
customers.
Reminds me of another Delorean parts seller who thought they were "number 
one".

I am sure Rob does fantastic work, and I have nothing bad to say about him 
and I have bought lots of accessories from his website, but when I needed 
parts in the end it was DMCH that provided them. When I called Warren and 
told him I need a new hood, I found it on my porch the next morning and it 
cost me under $1000.00
Wine or no wine, my car is on the road and DMCH is responsible for it.

So, I am not going to stick my nose into all of their personal business, I 
don't give a shit about them selling wine or DMC salad dressing - who cares?
I don't.
It's not my job to police the doings of DMCH and I am not going to sit 
around and monitor the internet and waste my life on such bitter and 
pathetic endeavors.

If you really give a shit about DeLorean cars and "The Dream", "The Legend" 
and the overall public perception, then stop picking on everyone on the 
internet and just mind your own business and promote a positive vibe about 
the car and the people who surround it.
The lurkers of this list who are reading all this crap will get the wrong 
impression of the car, it's owners and the vendors who support it.

Repeat....
"Calm blue ocean, calm blue ocean, calm blue ocean"......
