I use eBay to reference parts prices. I usually get some good deals on things like OEM oil filters and things I can buy in bulk. Look out for a lot of too good to be true deals. Chains are an item that are either a hit or miss thing. Other than that, I love it. Online shopping is so easy and to me, takes out the middle man behind a parts counter. I guess the fall back is that it hurts local shops who are owned by hard working people.

eBay is usualy the 1st place I look I have got some super deals Like a Spare Tire Carrier for My RZR for $40 like new that Polaris sells for $129,A New in the Box Warn/Polaris Winch for $67,Be careful of eBay brake pads I put a set on My Yamaha Grizzly & 90 miles later they were metal to metal went back to the OE Pads and 200 miles later they are still good.

i use to try to support my local dealer but it seems like lately if you dont give them a part number they usually get you the wrong part and it seems like they never have anything in stock anymore so if i have to wait 3 to 5 days why would i pay more money at a shop when most of the time i can find online cheaper so prob 95% of my shopping is online.

i have always supported who ever give me the cheapest price & the best/quickest service.i dont care if i have 2do bizz with the devil,hahaha..online shopping beats the pants of anything,in price, service,deals & convinece..another great thing about buying online u can see what customers have 2 say about the parts with a 5star rating system,when u got 2 local shop,ur buying at the shops recommendations ,in which they only care about unloading there crap on you..for the pasted 3 or 4 yrs ive been doing all my shopping online,mainly ebay.

I buy things like oil /oil filters and other small misc parts from the dealership, but for upgrades it's always online.
