any issues with the parts? did you have to return them for anything?
my wife's car needs two cat converters and I definitely aint going to a dealer. Ebay has a set for less than 400. Good price, but I'm reluctant to pull the trigger.

just got my raybans on Saturday from ebay. just being weird about car parts since the shop will be putting them on.
not stolen. the code shows both are shitty at the same time. its an old car, 2008 4runner, with over 200k. no major issues until now. so its about time I guess.
I'll prolly pull the trigger. autopartswarehouse has the same set, but at a slightly higher price. but I trust them more right now. lol

There used to be a mechanic in my neighborhood who would install whatever part I brought in for just the cost of labor. I hated to see him close up shop.
I had an old Explorer and would go on Ebay, Rock Auto, or AM-Auto for discount parts.

It's eBay.
Look for someone with a high rating and a recent transaction history. I'd say anyone with over a 25.
If they don't have a high rating or activity recently contact them using the form on ebay with some basic questions and see how they respond. If they sound reasonably human like you'll probably be okay. People could just be new and not a scam.
If they never respond, or they're jerks or sketchy, then buy from someone else.

I still cancelled my prime trial because I don’t order enough to justify it.

but every time I price check stuff like detergent or cat litter they can’t beat Walmart.
and Walmart has 2 day shipping or pick up from my location down the street

also, be picky...especially on something like a converter. They are NOT all created equal. Check out rockauto.com, also. Good prices and relatively fast shipping.
