When it comes to buying car parts, do you normally buy them yourself or do you let your repair man buy them for you. Most people prefer buying it themselves or even going with the repairman to prevent being cheated.
 
I don't buy car parts myself, the garage where I take my car for regular service also sell spare parts, I get spare parts from the garage. However, when I have to change tiers, I get them from a store where I was a business partner in the past.

Business partner? Where you directly into car business before or did you just went into partnership with them and didn't have anything to do with the cars directly?

I was in a partnership business of selling vehicle tiers and engine oil. I left the business because there was a huge loss.

So sorry to hear that though, but I must say that's pretty impressive. If given the chance, would you ever invest in this kind of business again?
 
I prefer that a mechanic do it for me, I don't consider that I have enough notions to be able to buy and change the parts myself, it is better to contact a professional in my case.
 
I am temporarily without a car, but I know what it's like to buy car parts. I always did it myself due to the fact that the service center always did not have a 100 percent similar part. They cooperated with some service that supplied them with these parts, but they were always parts of the worst quality, so I decided to look for parts on my own and then give the car to them to install this part for me
 
If it is a trusted mechanic, I would let him buy the parts by himself but if it is a mechanic that I don't trust, we would have to go together and buy the parts.
 
Honestly speaking, I have had my own fair share of buying car parts, and that is why I learnt to always do my research before making any kind of purchase.i strongly recommend you to check the online reviews and also compare prices before making a purchase.
 
Whenever we need new car parts, we usually depend on the car repair shop to provide them. On one occasion, we had to deviate from this routine when our regular car repair shop did not have particular car parts in stock for our Toyota Vios. At that time, my dad asked for help from his older sister to acquire the needed car parts.

I've bought car parts online multiple times from reputable sellers, and I must say that it's been a very wonderful experience for me . Plus, the customer service is top notch.

Probably, not. Even through demand for car parts is growing, there is a lot of competition. In order to survive the competition you end up selling on credit and some dishonest people will never pay.
 
It is better to go with the repairman to buy the parts. By so doing, one would be having knowledge about the car he is driving and the particular parts that fit into it.

One business that can easily make one very rich in my country is sales of spare parts of cars. It is very lucrative. The only challenge is how to import the parts from the countries they are manufactured from.
