Well I guess we gave you guys something to chat about. When I saw what price the shocks sold for I knew this would come up. With a 495.00 reserve I figured it was obvious that they were not NOS. We always state in all of our auction if a part is NOS, GM, or original used.It was never our intention to deceive anyone. I have to answer to a higher power than any of you. I contacted the buyer and told him we would not hold him to the price and if he wants them, to phone us. Have not heard back yet. The reason I didn't state repro is that makes it sound like a readily available part and it is not. Actually the cost of dating them is quite high and I was trying to determine what you guys would pay to see if it was worth inventorying them or not. Contrary to what some may think they are not simply stamped. Try that sometime and all you will get is a dent in your shock. Again it was never our intention to deceive anyone. Several people emailed us and I answered each persons question with an honest answer. I wouldn't think of doing otherwise. By the way, there are a lot of people out there that would rather not know when they are buying parts, whether it be dated glass,a numbered block, repro this or that, if the quality is there and the judges get don't catch it, isn't that the point? How many people have an ALL original car really??!! If you don't know for sure, than you can think what you want, but if I tell you it is a repro part you will know for sure. If your car has an original fender on it or a GM replacement fender installed 2 weeks after the car was sold new because the mailman bumped into it is it really a big deal? To some it is and there are guys that would rather not know the details. If I figure out a way to flatten a big block dipstick do you think I can get 500.00 for it if it is GM ?
