Default Re: 1967 z/28 PARTS WANTED

Ive noticed several times on ebay, that once a part gets big $$, the next week or two the others crawl out of the woodwork, show up on ebay, and bring considerably less money.

One example: Couple years ago there was a 69 GTO Endura front bumper that was repaired and primed, sold in the $600 range. I thought "HEY!!!, I have a couple of those". The next week there were a handful on ebay, sold for about half the price.

It's like anything else. The right part, at the right time, and with more than one person needing it.

Congrats Charlie, I almost pooped my pants when I bid on it at over $1000. Like I said, you win some you lose some. I doubt the guy that bought it needs it. He has been hoarding 67-69 Z/28 parts and has been paying crazy money for almost everything he bids on. He has bought his fair share of loose 69 z/28 cowl tags. It seems no matter what that guy outbids everyone. Sometimes that can work against you by entering a real high bid like this guy does. Who knows how high he bid, but I think it was thousands above what he got it for.

Anyways, this thread really got high jacked. All I was doing was looking for parts for my car.

It was in the wrong section anyway, looks like I need to start a new wanted ad.

Jeff, all the fans I see in that pic look like the common 3 inch bolt pattern.

Whats the sense in placing an ad if someone responds to your ad and then gets a part identified, then doesnt offer it to you and places it on ebay for the part collectors.

If you had offered more in the first place you probably would have owned it and it never would have hit Ebay. You offered 250.00 but bid over 1000.00 on Ebay ? I don't blame you for wanting to save on a purchase but if there is something I really need I have the best luck when I offer what I am willing to pay.
