This is true for both new and used parts, but I would highly recommend only buying used auto parts online if it is your only recourse. Used parts can be very difficult to determine quality even with the product in hand, much less through someone's web page who is trying to sell it to you.

Some stores sell these products but if the person wants other options, then it will be a good idea to visit the company website and select from the models available until the right one is found.

Once you have located a salvage auto auction, it is best to inspect the vehicle before you are ready to bid. Arrive early and take your time. This is very important and many times people skip this step or does a quick last minute look over. If the auction is not local, then you might be able to view the cars online on the auction website. There are usually a detailed description of the vehicle and pictures to give you an idea on the condition, title and repairs made or needed.

When it comes down to finding parts for specialty vehicles or luxury vehicles it can be a lot trickier. Quite often, the auto stores won't stock a particular part and they have to order it from the manufacturer. There are websites that specialize in these types of venues.
