Early A-body V-8 conversion parts

krazykuda said
Watch out for this guy. We had a deal on two axles, and he then posted it on e-bay, and then "sold it locally" before the e-bay auction ended. His word is worthless, even in writing he won't honor it...

Here's the link to the thread:

I did sell the housing locally (item was listed on craigslist at same time).

I sold the 3.23 third member to a FABO member from an Items wanted listing (he is very happy with the transaction)

We did not have an AGREEMENT at anytime during our conversations.

Here is the PM traffic:

I have more than one car, and am trying to get a couple back ups.

That's ok. I'll find others.

I sold the housing and axles with a different third member locally this morning. I lost out on a deal for a 360 oil pan last month about the same way.

I did not want to ship the axle assembly or wait a while to complete the transaction.

I am sorry if you feel slighted, but the original posting said "local pickup only". I did not want a long distance buyer even if he sent the money immediately, because if I spent the money and he balked when he came to pick it up I would be on the hook to refund him.

PS: after you bought a 3.55 third member yesterday I figured you were taken care of?

Karl, If you had said you were interested in picking them up instead of me shipping them to chicago in the beginning, I would of sold them to you outright!

After I did some research concerning shipping them, I realized I might of underpriced the third member. So now I am selling the third member on ebay and the rest with whoever shows up with local pickup.

I understand it is a long way to drive for just an axle, and I also do not like buying stuff from ebay (mostly prefer craigslist or local classifieds).

But you gotta do what you gotta do to get the good parts....

Thanks

I am really not interested in attempting to ship the axle housing & stuff. I have a guy who will swap me some 4 speed stuff, but would much prefer cash with local pickup of the unit.

After checking on ebay to see what others charge to ship third members and seeingh what they are selling for, I have decided too list the third member on ebay to see if I can get what others are asking for similar units?

Here is the listing:

Heck if it sells for enough I may not even need to sell the housing after all!

I had a guy ask fro a shipping quote on the 3.23 third member , he lives in CA. I think the cost will be much higher than he is thinking. SO the sale of that item to him is by no means definate.

So far on FABO, you are the first to reply and there fore are first in line. I just need to go home and weigh it to see how and how much to ship to Chicagoland area.

Hope to have some idea tonite.
