dude, its a junkyard, not a retail business. when they get a call like that, its not like the VW parts dept where the guy says "let me look in the system for that price". have a pair of balls, go down the the yard, and tell them you've got $x for the part.

This. You can haggle the hell outta them depending on the junkyard. Also, I like to pick a couple junkyards and then keep with them so as to build a rapport with the owner/employees. Highly viable in the longrun.

 

Also, that does seem like a lot for a turn signal, etc. However, I do not know what kinda of refletor it is or how much they're sought after or are originally priced. So... I dunno. Good luck.

Don't like the price, buy elsewhere. I get tired of ppl bitching about a price they are given, usually they come back with "well my buddy has it for xxx ammount", I just tell em to go buy it from their fucking buddy then lol. Like others have said in this thread, the price given over the phone from a junkyard usually isn't the price thats set in stone. Go in and say "Hey I am a little short on money will you take xx ammount?" odds are they will say yeah
