For those of us looking to buy a hardtop where is the best place to look and buy? When I do find one on ebay seems nobody is willing to ship. I've wanted a hardtop for a while but am having a lot of trouble finding a nice used one in my area and I'm definetely not going to the dealership-I'm looking for an arctic silver or black one

I could find hardtops but all far away and most did not want to deal with shipping. When I checked into shipping Greyhound was the only reasonably priced option but you need a seller willing to play and you have to go pick it up at a Greyhound.

In terms of finding them I looked to ebay, craigslist, Excellence, Panorama and this forum.

I ended up finding one in SoCal in the color I wanted (no repainting costs and hassle!) with a cover, stand and the seller was wiling to deliver it to me for a price that made sense for me.

Don't forget you will need spin locks and don't forget to ask about the three plastic covers.

Good luck.
