            • how do you justify a $5.70 ship cost for an L PLUS decal that can be sent in an envelope with a stamp. Ebay rip off artists.

                  Thanks, I never noticed a difference, but would be the first time I over look something!

                    • that seller had 2 dashboards at one time. i bought one but saved on the shipping by going to pick it up. 4 hr rnd trip. this is an 88/89 dash. just the shell. no bracing or stiffeners. it's worth the $100 for a restoration but no way with another 2 bills tacked on for shipping.

                      • I have a 93 gray dash. Will the large 93 tube bracing fit the 89 dash which only had narrow struts? I really like the manual choke cable hole, because I have a manual choke. I too was thinking about driving down to pick it up.

                        • how do you justify a $5.70 ship cost for an L PLUS decal that can be sent in an envelope with a stamp. Ebay rip off artists.

                          If the seller is a "top rated power seller" they have to upload tracking info for the package in order to keep their TRPS status. That TRPS status gives the seller a 20% in fees which adds up to $100's a month depending on sales volume. Sadly, An ebay seller cannot just put something in an envelope and put a stamp on it or they get "dings" on their sellers account.

                          If the seller did out it in an envelope and ship it without tracking info, the buyer can easily claim they never got i. Ebay will give them their money back because the seller has no proof he/she even sent it. Ebay sellers must have tracking for everything we send. I make a living selling on ebay. I know.

                          • This ECU is expensive! No wonder he hasn't sold it since Christmas!

                            This resistor appears to have the ceramic coating on the coil, intact.

                            Anyone have trouble opening their hood because of having too much weight in their wallet? This will solve both problems.

                            • sorry to lump you in with bad experiences i and others have had. sadly over the years, ebay motors has become a junkyard of generic garbage and repetitious multiple listing that do nothing but waste time. many, many sellers offer items that they will claim fits our cars but won't without severe re-engineering. i used to be able to input "ford festiva" in the search box and a majority of the listings were actual festiva parts. new, used, rare, replacement, remanufactured parts for a FESTIVA. it was fun to go through the pages and maybe score a hard to find part. now, unless you input the exact part, you'll get gems like: Lemonade air freshener - fits ford festiva, Metal garage signs - fits ford festiva, Power window motor - fits ford festiva, 205/50 R18 tire - fits ford festiva. the list of flotsam goes on for 100s of aggravating pages.
                              incidentally, a 1oz box big enough to put a label on sent 1st class WITH tracking is $3.37 USPS. i'll grant the seller 2+ bucks for time and material. but there too if comparisons are noticed, different sellers of the exact same item on ebay will charge suspiciously lower or higher for shipping. and then a third seller will ship it for free but the item itself costs $20 more than the other sellers! i know i'm being jacked. thanks for your input though d0n. i'm sure we can trust you as a seller.
