Whether you are buying off ebay, craigslist or a salvage yard: it all comes down to due diligence on your part.
Two days ago I responded to a guy parting out a Boxster in the Dallas/Ft Worth area. He quoted me $75 for a 3-spoke Tiptronic steering wheel w/airbag.
I took the bait and scheduled a visit with the seller for the next day, but had to postpone it another day due to snow/freezing rain/icy roads and a winter storm advisory.
Before I got in my car to travel up to Dallas/Ft Worth, I received an email from the seller stating he forgot he had already promised the steering wheel to someone else who was paying via paypal.
I don't know if the seller discovered he could get more than $75.00 for the parts or if the other guy needed the part more than me, but you have to be careful...Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me.
