Find car parts online
By Jeff Lakie
For the recreational car hobbyist, there are few better places to buy
parts than on eBay. Think of it like this: if an auto parts swap meet had
a child with Godzilla then eBay Motors would be their offspring. Here
are the reasons why the Internet is the best place to buy parts:
1. Convenience: Thanks to the Internet, people can buy things
online when they want and where they want (at work, in the
comfort of their home, wherever) and they don't have to wait
any longer for the first Saturday of the month when the swap
meet happens.
2. Quality assurance: Which is better: car parts that can be had
really, really cheap on eBay, and other such sites, or haggling
over a part by some fast-talking guy who knows there's
something wrong with the part but won't budge on price?
3. Lots of choice: You may not get the price you want at the
swap meet, but you need the part, so you're willing to spend a
little more for it. The great thing about eBay is that you can
pass on the stuff you don't like because you know something
similar will probably come along shortly.
4. Price: At the swap meet you can barter back and forth, but it
involves some give and take on both sides. Neither of you end
up with the dollar figure you want. On eBay, though, you can
set your price. If you don't get it at that price, you can revisit
your bid, but if you ride the auction till the end and bid just a
dollar over the last bid, you'll have a great chance of winning
the bid at a price you'll be happy with.
5. Background check: EBay has a feedback rating which allows
you to check up on how well the seller has lived up to their
word. But at the swap meet, all you have to go on is your gut
instinct when you're face to face with the guy who's trying to
push his parts on you.
6. Pay any way: Many sellers on eBay, though PayPal, accept
checks, money orders, and credit cards. At the swap meet
you're either exchanging parts or cash. Paying for parts with a
credit card lets you put off the payment until it's convenient for
you.
7. Warranty: On eBay, you actually get a warranty when you buy
products from them. The warranty is offered by eBay, and
your credit card has a ¡°chargeback¡± option, too, to protect
you from getting ripped off. Was there a warranty at the last
swap meet you were at?
EBay Motors is a great place to find cheap car parts. The prices and
convenience is unbeatable. Forget those old swap meets, stay home,
stay in your pajamas, and click for more convenience and savings.
