Sorry in advance if this breaks any rules.

Where are you guys getting your used parts these days?

I've been out of the community for a few years and it seems like the FS section has slowed down quite a bit on both forums. I know in some cases I'm asking for oddball/rare parts but I feel like I used to get a lot more response when putting up WTB posts. Ebay seems to be ridiculously overpriced compared to here so I refuse to buy anything off there, and nothing of interest ever comes up on craigslist (smaller supra community in Atlanta).

Facebook? If so, please list the group names.

Thanks!

Almost all used parts now are getting to be junk. The last probably 5-6 transactions for used parts have done me no good..

There isn't a whole lot I buy used anymore. The only thing I'd buy used is like a block or a head, maybe a transmission if mine ever destroys itself. Too much of a risk to purchase important engine components used.

There are certain parts I won't buy used. Lately I've been looking more for cleaner interior parts, standalone, really want to find a jza70 recaro interior and so on. Also fishing around for a lower mileage set of coilovers which it seems you can find every once in a while. For stuff like the standalone, you save like $700 from new and they're not really a wear and tear item.

But any sort of general engine/chassis repair stuff I buy new.
