Title: Bit overpriced me thinks
Post by: gavin.starr on May 30, 2011, 05:08:22 PM
I thought 30 quid was about the going rate for these.

I though that would be the going rate for a GT manifold. I remember a polished one years ago going for 120 quid. I dont mean flowed, but polished.

I have seen some really over priced stuff sell from him. I bought some sun roof guides and they were £20. Nice enough bloke though.

I've seen plenty of GT manifolds sell for £90+.  The prices seem to fluctuate quite a lot, suddenly there'll be load of demand for some reason and the price goes right up, then in a couple of months it just drops again as seemingly no one wants one.

That gearknob price is totally stupid though, he must think it's a lot rarer than it is

£25-30 is current price for a gt inlet... more and more gts being carbed and broken for spares so they are much easier to get hold of than previously

£80 lol!

I thought he was a member on here? Sold me an accelerator cable which he had listed as 'removed from a G40' when in real life it wasnt from a polo at all! Told him this and he said he'd refund me which he never did!
