It doesn't take anything special to become a member here. So you still need to be watchful in the for sale sections. You can check a seller to see if they have positive or negative feedback. Sometimes it also helps to note how long they've been a member here. In addition to the gougers there are also good deals, you just have to watch for em.

But like I previously stated there should be a place for people to just vent. And trying to charge more money for a used part than the dealership wants brand knew is ridiculous and they should be told it's ridiculous. Not something a good and or reasonable person would do.

Honestly, a lot of times people just guess at the value of a part when listing them for sale. With used parts, sometimes throwing "$10" "$50" or "$100" is something that sounds reasonable when listing an item. Sometimes, it turns out to be a $700 part from the dealer and other times it turns out to be a $50 part at the dealership. I doubt anybody would maliciously list at a price above what a dealer would charge if they researched it. The only people I know that would do that, would be the dealers themselves with their "Adjusted Market Value".
