Autozone's window motors are $75?

I just bought an autozone window motor (siemens) for $75. Everyone on here says they get them for 50 what gives? Napa Auto parts sells one for 55 dollars does anyone have these?
Thanks

maybe they sell a couple different brands or something but you can get a new AC one for around $70 or so if I remember right.

Got my autozone power window motor for like 49.95 before tax. Has a lifetime warranty on it. That was over a year ago, so maybe they raised the price.

They had two in the computer I believe. One was a 75, the other a 50. I got the 50 w/ lifetime warrenty and have had it in for a few months. So far so good, its a bit louder, but who cares.

I got my motors off of ebay from this united auto company. Just do a search and you will find it. They seem like a big parts store, not some hole in the wall place. You can "buy now" for 32dollars or bid on them. I ended up getting mine for 26 a piece.
Peace

Theres a track on the bottom of the window; it holds the window with rivets, and has rollers on it that slide on verticle tracks that makes the window go up and down. Chances are that one of the rollers broke off.

This is what happened to me. I bought the track from a dealership (they were the only ones that had the track), it costed me $55 if I remember. I tried to replace it myself, but couldn't get the rivets off. My buddy was supposed to help me fix it, but I never got around to it. Then one day, I braked a little hard, and the window slid foward and shattered Do yourself a favor, get it fixed so you don't have to spend $250 on a window.
