Ebay madness AGAIN!

[cbudvet]

So I'm surfing the bay looking for car parts when I find this auction.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1970-Datsun-240Z-Parts-Car-3490-/400135191707?pt=Salvage_Parts_Cars&hash=item5d29ea7c9b#ht_1735wt_736

Its a early model but looks to be in bad shape and they want $10,000 for it. Ok, so that doesn't bother me so much. Sure, I think they are totally over estimating the value for that car. Its not complete or 100% original but hey, why not. The weird thing is, when you follow the sellers link to other 240z parts, they have a bunch of the good parts for sale separately with buy it now prices. The pictures for the parts are of the car for sale. It looks like they are double dipping with this car. They have taken a bunch of parts off it to sell as well as selling the rest of the car. It gets so frustrating to see people be so greedy that they try to wring every last penny out of a car. Oh well. :disappoin

It's the same 240Z that they have advertised before http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=39121. If you look at the other cars they have posted on ebay, they are all listed for $10K. I think it is just an advertising scam. They post an ad for the cars with ridiculously high prices for the whole thing and then say contact them to buy parts from it. That way they don't have to list ads for each part individually.

By the way, that is the same car that Wingzr0 had been posting about for 2yrs and the seller was trying to get $500 for http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=30031. It looks like this Nissan wrecking yard bought it instead.
