Always buy from a reputable dealer. If you do, you minimize the chances that you'll end up buying parts that don't work or only work for a short while or poorly.
Regardless of what parts you will be buying, always inspect them for small nearly insignificant damages. Here is an example: suppose you want a used laptop screen. Check it very carefully to see if there are any areas of chipped plastic around the screen.

Sometimes you can find hard drives in the surplus market. Be careful with these and check them carefully. Same with ports and connecting devices; anything that can damage a system if it fails is high risk. These items are prone to disaster if you don't check them closely.
