Does anyone buy a Certified GX from ebay? My local dealer's GX CPOs are too expensive, and they are very hard to negotiate down even in current bad market.

I don't have an answer but...
1. I would really want to see the car (truck) that I am buying up close and personal.
2. I've heard some horror stories about the auto shipping companies. The cars can really get beat up unless you choose a good one.

I found my GX470 via cars.com.
I searched and searched for months before I found the GX470 at the price I wanted.
But it was worth it, I got it at a "great" price and it has everything.

By the way, with cars.com you can narrow the search to certified only.

Thank you, Topper. My area has two Lexus dealers, but their CPOs are very expensive and the dealer doesn't want to low the price even the trucks have been in the lot for more than a year.
I prefer to buy a CPO locally because the nearest non-local Lexus dealer is more than 100 miles away. I am going to keep looking, hopefully, I can find a good deal.
