Should I trust ebay for a radiator? 40 bucks?
Sounds like a great deal, but it scares me a little bit. So, I need a new radiator for my car and ebay has them for 40 bucks all the way up to 200 bucks ... Check it out:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/93-97...QQcmdZViewItem


And here's an OEM one resold:

My question is, would you guys trust these 40 dollar radiators? I mean, they sound legit, but 40 bucks!?! ....... Just feels like I'm getting scammed. Has anyone got one for this cheap? Or if you wouldn't trust em, where is a cheap and trustable place to get one? Thanks so much.

OK, just noticed that the shipping is about 50 bucks ... where they might be getting some profit there too ... 90 bucks sounds more believable but still scares me. Should I do it?

K. Just bought the one from the guy with 100% and from the U.S. Didn't really trust the Canadian one ... YaY ... Radiator on the way. I'll throw it in, and finally have my coolant problems solved ... hopefully. Woot.

Wow! ... Doesn't really make as much sense as hacking in and BUYING one but I guess it would make sense if the laptop was stolen or something and he didn't want to be traced ... Haha, thats funny. Sorry about your 6 bucks! You could have gotten a little less than 2 gallons of gas with that!
