But the shipping's free!
I sold a pair of 100% complete and undamaged but slightly more weathered condition XS1 carbs on eBay in April for $228 plus $14 shipping, and I thought that was outrageously expensive...

Wonder if that's a Yen/Dollar math problem...

On their payment plan at $47 per month I could have those babies paid off in just over 2 years.

Was just thinkin' that. Guess renegotiating is out of the question?

That`s the same seller that has the $1,300 green side covers. Check out this guy`s "other items". Cheap entertainment. Here`s the real deal of a lifetime. $245.00 choke shaft. Well the shaft part anyway!

I see this often when people sell vintage car parts. They are going “fishing” to see if someone is desperate for the item, or really doesn’t have a clue for the actual value of the part. Placing the ad up doesn’t cost them anything.

I managed to snag a set of NOS carbs for my 72 10 years ago for $350. I think I got a good deal. Now where did I put my originals, might get $900 for them

About 2 yrs ago I found a set of BS34's that weren't correctly identified (iirc). Bid the $12.50 minimum and a week later got 'em with no other bidders. Shipping was 10 bucks so.... $22.50 for a serviceable set of BS34's.
