EBay has a regulation team that reviews auctions plus sellers report eBay buyers who are violating the Terms of Service.
I think eBay's business model is pretty standard/common: they provide a marketplace where sellers and buyers meet to exchange goods and services. eBay makes its profit by charging a commission on sold items (as well as just having each item placed in the marketplace). eBay charges its fees to sellers, not buyers.
They took away the ability for a seller to leave negative feedback and replaced it with a case department for sellers that allows them to give buyers who don't pay a strike against them, and sellers are allowed to specify if they don't want buyers with any strikes to bid on there items. I believe if a buyers has 2 strikes they get suspended and the third strike there eBay account gets deactivated.

First, check the Yellowpages. If you don't find anything, check Ebay, as Ebay has loads of buyers and sellers and one of them are bound to have car parts and in good condition.
