Brian, before buing used item here, first ask how much it cost new. Cause those people sometimes foll you and sell you something with a price higher than new so make sure you know the price before you go.

Yes as much as I hate to say it, IGUANO is right. Brian, check first the new price from the dealer after discount. Cause sometimes the scrapyards try to take you for a ride. For example, the center wooden panel for my Patrol's dashboard costs from the dealer 1400 and the scrapyard guy at first tried to sell it to me at 900; it was better off for me to take it from the dealer as it wasn't brittle like the 2nd hand one since its been sitting under the sun for long. It all depends on what you're looking for. If its for your Jeep, its better off to go to Dubai as Abu Dhabi's useless, mostly Patrols and LCs wrecked up.

This will only happen once in every 10 years, so wait for the next one.
