Can you just walk up and buy from Rocket or is it wholesale only?

What's wrong with American Auto Parts? Apart from that arrogant guy who wants to talk back condescendingly all the time, you know the one who drives the dragster.

Maybe on some stuff,Ive been shopping there for 15yrs for hard to find stuff,I will always find stuff cheaper elswhere,by a big margin.
For some general stuff rare spares is as cheap as anywhere.
