Today, I love it, and more specifically, watching an auction like a tiger watches a gazelle, ready to pounce when the moment is right!

Bam! Theres that moment.

Snagged a Autometer boost/vac gauge for $40 shipped. Been watching these other 2 a-holes outbid each other by nickels and dimes on it for 2 days now, and in the last 38 seconds I crush both their dreams. It was close though, one guy matched my high bid with 3 seconds on the clock.

 

how can you ever hate ebay?? lol I always love it, I got a $80 spoiler for my car for $26 shipped the other day!!

 

Most of the time I go looking, I can't find anything. Ever shop car parts for the TT? A handful at best...

 

Nice. That gauge is $70+ plus shipping on egauges.

?

 

Not the same gauge.

 

i love ebay and have made quite a bit of money and had fun with it.

not car parts or whatever though. mostly guitars and amplifiers that i know really well. for example- i have found a few guitars on there that i got for around 500 each and turned them around a month later and sold them for 1500-2000. you just gotta know your market well.

matter of fact, i paid for my chip, DV, and AWE boost gauge with profits made on selling old stereo gear.

 

You should totally order a stock fuel/temp gauge needle for that boost gauge!

 

order?

Are you kidding me? I've had 2 of those needles just kicking around for over 2 years.

You think I'm new at this? I have a NIB fuel line somewhere, the plastic line that runs under the car. Thats like, $400 at the dealer, I've got 3 CD cartridges now, 14" Ronal rims for an 86 4000, used to have a pile of the older inline fuel pumps Audi used to use, fairly high flow pumps for stock. Those might have been tossed though, got varnished up.

Audi packrat like you wouldn't believe.. ; )

 

your trunk was indeed full of random crap ;-) Good thing you dont have an avant, or your packrat status would slow you down haha
