Plus the sellers usually have a longer history of transactions and ratings. When searching this way, the items you’re after tend to be less expensive because they are not high turn and in high demand so most of these parts are seen as unsellable or unusable by the seller
I purchased an OBD port this way just 2 months ago it cost me $8.00

Hope your search is successful
