Default E-bay

Does anyone have favorite merchants on e-bay? I have purchased a few items, and so far the quality has been great, and the prices are cheaper than anything I've seen in catalogs. I was even able to find a jack handle holder for under the hood. I have not seen that in any catalogs. Other thoughts?

I bought a bunch of stuff there last year .. for the most part imo you can get some deals from regular sellers but the guys that do it as a business are a little pricey. :chevy

Bought about 80 - 85 items from ebay, never been burned ( yet ) , just remember to read the sellers feedback, and always ask questions if in doubt about an item.... good luck :cheers:

I use Ebay all the time to find those hard to find 20 year old one-of-a-kind parts. I've never had a bad transaction <knock wood> and usually look there first before the usual catalogs. Just this week I scored a NOS roof panel carrier kit still in the original box. :thumbs:
