Really Ebay Sellers.....Really!!!

[280~Master]

1. So what really is the point of listing an item with just a little bit of the part number showing?

2. Do these sellers think we are so stupid/naive to believe that these parts are so rare?

3. Why do they always seem to jack the price up on these items? Usually double the true cost.

4. Why does cottage cheese have an expiration date when its all ready curdled?

#2 answers #1 and #3. As for #4, ignore the expiration date and toss it out when it turns green

As P.T.Barnum said "There's a sucker born every minute." Did you see the series 1 steering wheel for $579?

I am nearly done with a complete restoration of my 73 240Z. And through the course of doing it I had purchased many parts on eBay. I can say that there is maybe (big maybe) a handful of nice honest Z parts sellers on Feebay. The rest can go jump in a lake. The nicest most honest sellers I've bought parts from are from here, other forums and Craigslist of all places. The people on eBay who sell strictly Z parts for a living are over priced and rude. Cadmium finish is not a gold finish. If I was to do another Z restoration I think I have enough connections and resources that I could probably have no need for eBay parts. Once my car is done I intend to do a write up about the process here because without this site and the information available I would have had a bigger battle then I already had. I will say one thing,,, The worst person I bought parts from has the initials of AA.

and #4a. Why does bread start off soft and go hard when it gets stale while Oreos start off hard and then go soft?

Are you speaking euphemistically or are you really asking about bread and Oreos?
