Before a month ago, no. I ordered some fiber washers from them to have on hand as I cleaned and rebuilt my distributor (2.1 WBX with the Hall sensor). The washers were inexpensive, shipping was cheap (they came in an envelope in the mail) and fast.

My orders from VWNOS were filled quickly as well. He's very active on The Samba late bug forum, and was a hobbyist for a few years before filling a gap in the market.
