    NXSBOB=bobdied on ebay.

    Why not just sell on here and save yourself seller fees? Plus members here get parts little cheaper. Is this supposed to be a secret ID or something so you can ask exorbitant prices for your Marauder parts on ebay? Just curious.

    Why isn’t he allowed to make as much money as he can off of his parts?

    He can. Just figured he could avoid ebay seller fees and sell on here for less.

    He has had some really nice stuff over the years. I thought everyone here knew it was him, it's not new news.

    But I do find it rather humorous when people list links in the third party section when it is their own parts for sale. Most of us get it when it's a third-party part for sale or car for sale it's not yours it's just an item for sale that you are mentioning to everybody else.

    Hence the third party section. I just said I think it's humorous because other people post links to Ebay for items of their own for sale and Call it third-party and don't even bother to mention that it's their own stuff.

    As mentioned before he does have really nice stuff top-notch stuff I've seen plenty of his pictures and if his prices are out of your range and I guess you know this just how it goes

    So what Jtrip stated was ‘politically incorrect’? See ‘silly prices’? Call’em out. If people want to pay ‘silly prices’ then it’s their money. $300 Zippo lighters - LMAO!!! $650 Marauder floormats - equally bizarre.

    I am an intergral, functioning element of the ‘market’, last time I checked. ‘Free Speech’ isn’t dead, last time I checked either. So Jtrip pointed out a quirk - good for him. Still recall the magical ’03 Marauder at $37,500 that gestated into an ’04 Marauder for $52,500. Seller uses same image and mileage is roughly in the same neighborhood. Hoping he was laughed out of the market.

    EXACTLY why I rarely bother! I’ve always used ebay, offerup, or simply thrown it away.

    Besides I’m not really into knocking down the prices on my car and/or parts like most others.

    I'll put on my flame retardant* suit and comment in this thread.

    I've always offered my Marauder parts (and car) for sale on this forum first.... for the price that I felt was fair market and a good deal for both buyer and seller.
    (Although, apparently...I sold my OEM floor mats too cheaply!)
    I'm not interested in 'giving away' the parts for next to nothing....after all, I've stored them for 15+ years!
    I always avoided using Ebay, not because of the seller fees, but because that pits all interested MM.Net members against each other in a bidding contest.
    Posting a link to your Ebay ad on this forum is a waste of time, as any smart Marauder shopper is already checking out Ebay for parts/cars.
    Personally, I don't like any 'For Sale' threads that just have a link to an Ebay ad.
    It's an indirect way of avoiding this forum's rules against not posting a Sale Price for an item and thus making members bid up the price.
    I've always been an; "Early bird gets the worm"/ First member to PM me with the funds gets the item.







    *does that mean that I'm a retard?

    It's sad that everyone seems to think what THEY think you should charge is the right price. If the price is too steep for you just move on and keep your opinions to yourself.

    If an item sells then the prices aren’t “silly”, they are “going rate”.

    Items for sale are worth what buyers are willing to pay, high or low.

    A pattern would have to be established before ‘going rate’ comes into play. Some people use poor judgement without doing their homework.

    Cheapskates can sit back and pout. Maybe they’ll get lucky?
