BUT, if you don’t buy one from napa or advance etc, and get one online you then have a bad part that is worth a perspective $30. My idea would be to buy these, and rebuild them, and then sell them. I thought of this last night while changing my power steering pump. Changed it out because it was leaking, which is just from a bad bearing that probably cost 5-10 bucks, so just replace that and sell it for $100. > > They are proabbly a way better idea that can come from core charges… There are many places around that rebuild most things with a core charge, but the problem is your market is very limited compared to most ideas in here. You can prolly make money if you have very little to no overhead (such as running it out of your garage for rebuilding then selling online), but I don’t think it’d be worth it for a store front most of the time. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/post-up-your-creative-business-ideas/266230)._
