Customs I was bidding on an old car part...

But didn't win the auction.

I guess somebody wanted it more than me.

i guess!

 

You cheapskate !! That thing is probably worth twice that.

I bet the winner wishes he had taken typing cl***es so he didn't put so many zeros in his bid.

Is the Maltese Falcon hidden inside?

 

Hey....I've got one I'll sell ya for HALF that price!

 

I saw a 32 ch***is sell for extremely stupid money. I think it was like 200,000 or something. I guess somebody showed somebody. I always wondered how that worked out

 

Hell, I've got one that I'll let go for 8 grand......there's a car attatched to it though.

 

LoL......I bet the buyer messed up his decimal point. $58.02 is probably what they meant to bid. LoL.

 

You probably coulda afforded it but you spent all your money on your blow-up date.

 

A man has to have his priorities, ya know !!

Didn't put in a decimal point is my guess. Speedo will be put up for sale again with a disclamer about a flake buyer before. And after the seller fights with Ebay on their percentage of the alleged selling price.

 

I have a couple of boxes of miscellaneous '50 Ford parts at my shop. They're all going up on the 'Bay tomorrow!!

 

I was going to suggest that some poor SOB thought they were bidding in Swedish Krona but that's still a lot of money. Check out the bid history, Someone bid it up to $5,702.00 from $76.80 before being outbid.

 

Somebody had to bid against that person to get the bid that high. If you just forget the decimal, it will just go to the next price level.

So, I have no idea what happened there. There's another one listed at $25 right now.

 

Gotta speedo?

I really am looking for one, I broke the needle on mine, and I don't think they're being reproduced.

How does that happen? For the price to go so high, doesn't there have to be someone bidding against them? Are there really 2 people out there willing to pay that much???

 

My guess is two fake bidders screwing with the seller. Bet it gets relisted.

They relisted it.

 

There were 8 bids by the losing bidder, and 4 by the winning bidder. It took a sudden jump from $76 to the two crazy bids at the very end. I doubt it will sell, as they either were goofing around, or just stupid.

 

I just got an e-mail from ebay that it was relisted

 

look at the automatic bids . bet you it was a typo

 

winning bidder probably bid 10000 just to make sure they would win it no matter what, he just didnt count on the "0" feedback deadbeat bidding that crazy number. I used to have a lot of problem with "0" feedback kids bidding and my cars and had no plans to pay, now I get contact info or their bid gets canned.

 

That's exactly what it is.

 

so, one guy bids the $10K just to make sure he get's the part, then some *** or the seller runs the bid up ( through his buddy or another e-bay account) just to see how far he can go?

can this happen?

 

It's a shame what's happened to ebay.

 

Almost every day.

 

Wild, wild world of eBay!

Can anybody tell me what the diameter of the hole in the stock dash is for one of those gauge clusters? I have a mid-50's Metro dash that would just about fit in a Model A. Seems like the Ford unit would be about the right size for this dash.

Thanks, *****6

 

There is stupid people everywhere.--TV

 

The winning bidder is legit with over 250 wins,,the other has 0 wins,,I'll bet it's a screw up. HRP

 

last year I sold a pair of monroe front shocks for $400 bucks on ebay you can buy them all day long for $40 ,I was surprised that he was legit and paid up,i guess there is an *** for every seat
