Default Hey, Gene...

I'm gonna take the shop manuals I just bought from you for $115 and put them on eBay.

Guess some folks don't know that it pays to shop around. Then again, I thinks some just go nuts when it comes to any kind of auction.

I thought I would get a good used set on ebay too. I have NEVER seen a set go for less than what Gene could sell you a brand new set shipped to your door for. People over there are NUTS!!!

Whoever bought them sure doesn't know what they typically sell for.

Looks like a ebayer vs a Corvette owner and if you sold at 100 you should have sold at 150.

No doubt. That yuyo362 on ebay is a real yoyo, he paid several times what they're really worth!

What did you guys pay for yours? I got a barely used set here on the forum in C5 parts for $60.00 and was happy with the deal.

Wow, you should! Go ahead and make yourself some money if you can.

Prices on there are nuts sometimes. Same thing with the 06 GTO black tail lamps. They're getting 300 for them on there used and I sell them for 237.14 brand new in the box!

I think I'm going to start selling some stuff on there!

Gene.
