Re: Think i paid too much for a Fly Eye
Pics of my car are in my "Introduction" post, for those that asked.
Oh and I forgot, when I was tallying up my receipts I didnt include the paint job which was $6500.00. I never minded paying what I had to for the parts because I always shopped around, paid cash as I went along and did all the grunt work myself, everything except the engine and paint, so I feel like I must haved saved enough to get an item like this to make it closer to right. First reaction was the guilts, which prompted the post, heck I still have 2 kids in college. Thats another reason why my car took so long to build. 5 educations, a wedding, (so far) in addition to everything else...
E bay is like anything else- you just have to watch that you dont get taken, like for instance those interior screw sets which at first may seem like a decent deal, but a look in Year One or NPD (ok, well maybe not Year One) and more than likely you can get it cheaper. Just have to compare and not let impluse let you bid things up. And thats another thing I see greenhorns doing on E bay, and thats to bid at all- if you want an item, just wait till the last second and bid what your willing to pay- and thats it- like I did with the air cleaner- and most other things I buy on E bay- if you lose you lose - and you wont if you put a bid in that you know you will get it- most times, anyway..
