Re: $ 1,500 + for repro spirals!!!!
You have to ask questions if the answers aren't in the auction...I ask people if it's OLD NOS or new NOS now...if you don't ask...they won't tell...

Re: $ 1,500 + for repro spirals!!!!
Wow, at least someone was mislead. That can ruin a businesses reputation...Does anyone know what the reserve was that is outrageous for a set of $400 shocks.

Re: $ 1,500 + for repro spirals!!!!
The "Buyer Beware" exclusion should not apply when you are dealing with a knowledgable known reputable seller. Hobbyists rely on these folks for info and fair treatment and do business accordingly. I hope this is cleared up prior to purchase being made and trouble begins.

I think Bobs in a bad mood...ring [/ QUOTE ] The old mood ring. Reminds me of this "Dear Abby" letter. Dear Abby: My husband is tired of my mood swings, so he gave me a mood ring. When I am in a good mood, it is green. When I am in a bad mood, it leaves a big red mark on his forehead. Maybe next time the cheapskate will buy a diamond ring. Bitchy in Boston.

Re: $ 1,500 + for repro spirals!!!!
The repo shocks I have seen dont have dates. The dates on the shocks in the auction look like they were stamped as the font just doesnt look right to me.

Re: $ 1,500 + for repro spirals!!!!
Besides that,I've yet to see a new repro set fullfil it's duties beyond a few 100 miles of normal street useage.
They were recently re-manufactured for their appearance for the trailered/show cars,so their internals are cheaper and their oil less plentiful.
