I think with the color Tension Blue, it is a niche or limited market of people who would want that color so the demand would be lower and need to be taken into consideration.
If I paid $900 and someone offered $650 then I will sit on them also and see if a better offer comes. Being that the difference in what the seller is asking and what someone is willing to offer is $250, so if you split the difference it would be $650 + $125 = $775. So both parties win as that is what negotiation is all about.
Just my 2-cents of thoughts not that it matters!

I am saying that $775 shipped is reasonable at the high end to ask knowing what I know about shipping cost for odd size boxes IE: Batwing. $700 - $775 is a fair range that I see for a new never been installed set. We all want to recoup as much as possible of what we paid and the other person want to pay least as possible.
If it were me, knowing that finding a tension blue set for sale is going to be rare to find, the buyer have to make a decision how bad they want them because when they get sold you then have to pay retail and would have missed out of any savings. They call it risk / reward.
Both parties are right on how much they want to sell for and how much they want to pay. As a result, its a wait game of who most importantly want to sell or buy and reach agreement.
Seller: Good Luck with Sale
Buyer: Good Luck with finding the price you want to pay

Actually I dropped the price of the corsas twice already. Im not going to continue to drop the price until it sells, thats ridiculous. Additionally, the corsa sale thread started out with just the mufflers and tips at that price and I have added the over axle pipes and did NOT raise the price. Is it really fair to say "he won't budge" when I am adding more value for the same price? I don't find your reply particularly appropriate.

Trying to negotiate with the wife to buy these from you. I recently dumped a lot of cash into the car and said I was done, we are never done though. Hopefully we can make a deal. Free bump also

I love this color if I didn't have the red piece's in my car & only had all black, with my car being black on the outside I would for sure buy these piece & do the others to match.
Plus I just love everyone tell a man that just bought what ever part & it is still new never been on the car. Telling them what is too much are I will give you 1/2 of what YOU have just paid for it.
Ant sorry man JUST THE WAY I FEEL ON STUFF LIKE THIS. Bump for a good guy here that is willing to help anyone on doing or working on these cars.. Robert

My wife got smart about me saying this is the last mod... Now, for every dollar I spend on my C7, she goes and withdraws the exact same amount from the account and places the money in her "just because slush fund for the pricey items she likes IE: Silver and Gold and objects that shine with bling etc"....
So I am selective about what I choose spend money on modding because she isn't playing around with me anymore by saying I'm done modding. I might have to create a side hustle to pay for mods. Good luck negotiating with the wife and try telling her you're buying them for her because she likes pretty colors. Good Luck! LOL
