Store dedicated to Prius' on eBay

butchbs1985 · 11-01-2008, 10:39 PM

I ordered a replacement fog light on eBay today (not from here this guy) and found this seller on eBay. It appears to be someone from Cali who's eBay store is dedicated to the Prius. Most of the parts were used but for someone like me who is usually looking for a deal, I figured it may be useful.

I haven't seen anything about this guy but maybe all of you out in Cali already know.

He seems to have a lot of Prius parts for sale.

That does look suspiciously like someone took apart a Prius and just listed all its parts separately... I wonder if you total up asking price on all the parts if you come out ahead of MSRP. I also wonder if there are any parts listed that might have a VIN number on them.

It is a salvage yard, or auto dismantler or auto recycler, whatever you want to call them.

i have bought a 2006 transmission from those guys like 6 months ago,very nice to work with and very affordable too

I bought many parts from them. You can do better on pricing by calling them. Make sure to check around though, many of his used parts are as much or more than new ones. Check parts.com before you buy the used ones.
