Doesn't your insurance cover it?

I would not pay that for a used windshield, especially if it's not already out of the car. If it's already out of the car it's worth $25 to me CAD or USD, not one farthing more. The act of removing a windshield from a car usually trashes it.

Some things you just don't want to buy used.

Yes, they will probably pay the $300 or $400 for it. Then next month they will raise my monthly insurance rate by $50/month. They will make it back in couple months. You have no idea what insurance companies are like in Canada.

Windshield

Buy a new windshield!

A used one could have chips and will certainly be pitted to a certain extent.
