i tend to find my stuff through friends or friends of friends. ebay has went from a place of bargain to the common selling spot so the price is only a bit less then anywhere else on the web.

if its something discontinued then i would look online. you would be surprised what you can find. google searches all websites and forums as well.

i managed to find a set of authentic TRD ITB's for almost free on a forum. i did the search through google.

another way to get good prices is to know people that are in the tuning industry. if they have a shop and are distributors, and you are good friends or refer a lot of people to them, they will generally give you a good deal.

the classified here are pretty good too. supraforums as well for a lot of things.

Alrighty then.....get pricing on the web and take your pricing to a local speed shop and let them try to match the price.Things are ruff out there and stores are hungry for sales.You'll feel a lot better about your purchase seeing it before paying for it.

+100 I find so much of my stuff on random forums out there. I just search google and see what kinds of deals there are on used stuff.
