I've had a great experience with this ebay company. I heard about them from the member tca217 on this forum because I needed new lower control arms. I thought that the deal was too good to be true ($110 for 2 hamburg technic lower control arms and 2 swaybar endlinks... I believe that shipping was free also). But, tca217 had put a few thousand miles on his and had no complaints, so I went with my gut and hoped for the best.
I received the parts within TWO DAYS of buying them (yes, with the free shipping) and they've held up GREAT. One of my balljoints was shot on my old control arms, so there was a VERY noticable increase in handling AND in gas mileage. Though gas mileage would only increase if the part was totally shot and bringing your performance down, I was happy.
1,000 miles later and I'm still happy.. the parts are great and nothing has gone wrong. I saved about $100-200 in parts and $300 in labor according to the quotes that I received
Overall, great experience with deutschepartsusa. I'm sure tca217 would say the same.

I bought a pair of Hydraulic Motor Mounts on ebay from them for like $79 and they were identical to OEM Volvo / Corteco Fruedenburg mounts and have been fine for the last 20K, function to OEM specs too.
in response to the negative review:
hate to break it to you but FCP Groton does the SAME THING, so do other vendors. I have bought things from them and so have others where they got some crappy substitute I had to return, even when it clearly lists other specific OEM brands or OEM on their site. FCP Groton sold someone a set of Scantech Strut mounts, blew a strut right through his hood.
They were probably Scantech or something, no different than what FCP also offers and not uncommon to have premature failure with non TRW, Moog, Febi or Meyle steering / suspension components.
That is why I only deal with certain vendors for suspension and steering components and ONLY go with select brands, either OEM or TRW, which is also commonly used as OEM.

I have to agree with the negative review of Deutsche.
On more than one occasion now I've received poor quality parts. But my real beef is their total lack of customer support. I call, email and contact them through eBay but never hear a peep.
Consider this listing for upper strut mounts- the title includes the word "Warranty." Now read the description- do you see anything stating what that warranty might be? God forbid you need to actually warranty them.
They lasted less than three months.

Is this company the one who uses Hamburgtechnik parts?And on ebay they write that they are OEM,Well I felt my self in this trap.
I bought endlinks for the steering rack,and rear shocks top mounts.The one rear top mount,failed after 1 day.And I have FSDs on,which are quite soft.
The only thing is that they write other and sell other.

I will go with positive review because i took their services many times in past without any issue. In fact i found their prices are very reasonable for OEM quality parts.My mechanic was very impressed & said parts fitted like the original ones.
