Exhaustive Ebay heads up

[Danblez]

I have just bought a NOS exhaust for my vanette for 99p + £15 postage. He seems to be stocking loads of them for some quite interesting old shite most going for the starting bid.

 

Arrived next day too!

Thought it could come in handy for some shiters.

I had the centre box for my Stanza off him at the same price, then a week later he listed the back box so I snapped that up too. Full exhaust for £32 all-in, can't complain. Both arrived within a couple of days to boot.

Thanks for this, got two, one for me granny (was quoted £60 at me local place!) and one for a van.

I was just gonna say he's got Stanza stock for Hirst...How's he making money? Everything is at 99p!

Suppose exhausts wouldn't weigh in for much and it's cheaper than hiring a skip.

In fact, I'm going to fill my boots here - practically every obscure vehicle I need (or will soon need) an exhaust for, he's got - including some I've not been able to obtain easily before. Nice!I'm going to be extra-pleased driving the Charmant around tonight. Currently it rasps and parps like an old Minor, soon it'll have a whole new system. Great stuff.My folks will go mental next week I expect, every day there'll be more huge boxes in their hallway to deal with.

Does he discount the postage if you buy a few bits, or is that basically what he’s making the money off?He does have Laurel bits, but as that’s a car I plan to own for A Very Long Time when it eventually needs something I’ll go stainless on it.Regrettably I couldn’t see anything for the Camry – that still seems to be in the domain of ‘proper’ sellers (and therefore prices to match).

£15 postage on the ones I looked at.Selling that amount of stuff, he'll be on a contract, so will be paying around £6 per item.

He is making the money out of postage. £15 to post a silerncer, front pipe or whatever is pretty expensive, not as bad for a full system and if the thing is only 99p then its not a big problem I suppose.

[FredTransit]

yeah as long as all in they are not more than £20, it's still a bargain....

[Father Ted]

Did he ram raid a branch of ATS Euromaster I wonder?Damn you impulse buying I have bid on a complete system for a Mk2 mini Metro. I dont have one (yet) but by gods when I get one it will have a non cracked exhaust ( they always go at the point where two downpipes merge).

[Conrad D. Conelrad]

I remember there being an auction for a lorryload of old exhaust stock a couple of weeks ago, I wonder if he bought that.
