Default More "Winner's Curse" Ebay Prices!

Looks like another case of two people putting in "Guaranteed to Win" bids and skyrocketing the price of parts.

69 Camaro/Chevelle BB NOS Motor Mount Set

Parts don't even look particularly NOS...

Don't mess with old farts - age and treachery will always overcome youth and skill! Bullshit and brilliance only come with age and experience.

Geez! I've got two NOS sets. Maybe I need to buy a vault. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif[/img]
Mine look about the same and are NOS so it must just be shelf aging.

I'm thinking the same thing. I put two NOS ones on my car and the only time on the engine is 20 minutes break in. "Nearly NOS" must be worth $800!

Gotta have a buyer before you can have a sale

Showed my neighbor (Mr Big Block/Hawaii) this E-bay ad and prices and he shows me a box of them since the mid 60's that he has collected. Guess he will be cleaning them up and sorting them out now

I recognize three bidders in that auction.They are usually very conservative bidders. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]
