Ebay is a funny place

[Shibs]

So yeah I just bought this on ebay today...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230262780411

In there it says he is also selling it locally so he can cancel the auction at any time. Sent him a question to see if i can get it cheaper than 800 and replied that he has a local offer of 750. So I bid at the last 7 min and obviously win.

His reply at the end of auction:
"Damn.... You just had to bid on it the last minute.. Didn't know how to end the auction early."

Now i got nice parts to upgrade my gen1 and plenty of parts to part out as long as this guy doesn't back down. Should be picking it up this saturday.

Edit: Plus i might have a buyer for the engine for the price I got the car for.

hmm, well I sent you a message regarding the other buyer. He has an offer of 900, I'll let you know if the deal falls through I gave him until tomorrow.

I was going to but it but it would not survive a 13 drive.

 

[Demoman]

Yep, it only has 1-2 gear and those will fail eventually.

 

[Right on the Mark]

Just my 2 cents and not really any of my biz but the auction ended and you won at 800 the deal is done no selling to another. You have entered and finished a contract. If the auction was pulled before it ended different story.

 

[unity]

I have to agree with that.

+2

nothing pisses me more than an auction pulled out from under the winner.

 

[Demoman]

The guy is on his way here now, calm down my friends.

 

[unity]

Well glad ya sold it, hate to see it go the junker.

 

[lunchmeat]

Hey are you parting it out unity??? If so can i get the light lens off of the doors????

 

[BAD97LSC]

you can only end early until there is 12 hours left on an auction, once you hit 12 hours or less you cannot end your auction.

 

[unity]

I did not buy it!

 

[lunchmeat]

Lol ok I didnt read all of the post. Thought you bought it. Should of.

 

[unity]

Wanted to. I need a Mark to paint. So it was perfect, just did not want to send the money shipping it

 

[Shibs]

Car looks great. Not sure now if I'm gonna part this one out or if I'm gonna part out my 94. Tonight I'm gonna due some testing/pondering which is the better option. One big thing for me is that they only make the spoiler for the gen1's atm.

 

[Demoman]

gen 1 spoiler doesn't look all great.

 

[slowmkviii]

great buy fix the gen 2 and part or sell the gen 1 IMO
