Default Re: VITAR COPO protecto plate on eBay

I hate the idea of purchasing documentation from prior owners - the principle makes me sick... documentation held hostage from the car purely for $. Being said, I have paid for the original documentation in two different instances for two different of my cars. It is a part of the hobby. I hope seller/buyer here can come to a price point that unites the paper with the car!

I look at it like an original part of the car - if it was the original BE rear for 10k I'd buy it. Same with paper - it's just another part. Just because it's made of paper (or small metal) doesn't make it worthless.

He is not a prior owner of the car. It was with paperwork for another car that he owned.

Pardon... I'm in Europe on business and did not have a moment to read the full eBay ad. I gather the seller is trying to reunited the POP with the car but being said, what's stopping someone who doesn't own the car from clicking the BIN? I commend his effort but the price would not preclude outsiders from being interested in it?
