Canadian source for appliance parts?

The integrated ice maker motor for our refrigerator croaked. The refrigerator is a Jenn-Air (Whirpool internals). I found a replacement motor on Amazon, it arrived damaged (clearly dropped in transit), shipped in nothing more than a plastic bag with no foam or bubble wrap, on top of that they shipped the wrong motor. Does anyone know of a reputable Canadian online appliance parts source?

The Amazon price was good, $US65 vs. > CDN$300 at local appliance parts places.

With Amazon you get easy refunds if it is cracked or wrong model sent. They will not make that mistake too often again as it costs them a lot of $$$.

I've had success with Trail Appliance in Calgary, I think they are a whirlpool distributor

I've always used amazon. Found it to be the best return policy (never needed, but peace of mind....) and sometimes when you factor in shipping, it's cheaper than the others. I did use another site, that I can't remember for some samsung dishwasher parts, but I'd rather forget that whole ordeal altogether......

Returned the bad one to Amazon (it was one of those 3rd party vendors), and ordered directly from "Amazon" they always seem to pack well, so hopefully I will be second time lucky. Fingers crossed.
