Title: Insert Brain Here
Post by: grinders_18 on June 22, 2008, 11:22:52 AM
Ok, so the word "rare" is tossed around way too much. This is a prime example of when someone here's rare, and doesn't bother to find out what it's worth:

Ok, first, it says crossover, but it's the downpipe.

Apparently there's a crossover pipe picture in this post:

And a beautiful turbo!!

I talked to the guy last week when I first saw the parts for sale. I asked him all the questions and said why are you selling them for so much? he replied

"TGP's are really rare cars with high collector's value"
OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm so flabergasted I'm speachless!!!!

Hopefully nobody that doesn't know any better buys anything from this guy. This guy should realize that you can get a whole TGP in really nice shape for cheaper than the combined prices of those auctions. :laugh: If that stuff could really fetch prices that high, I'd high consider parting with those pieces from my red car & L67 swapping it. :laugh:

I couldnt resist, So I sent him a Email..

Quote from: My EmailYou realize the parts you are selling on ebay are not worth anything near what you are asking for them? I bought my whole car, with extra parts, for what you are asking for one of your parts (400 dollars), my second parts car for 350 dollars. Good luck in paying those listing fees, cause that?s all it will be..

Have a nice day!
