All mopar friends here?

Here is where trouble can lurk. A guy that sells used parts KNOWS the going price for a given part. A guy in the hobby, a NEW ish guy, he might not know the going price. Lets say, he bought a part for his car, turns out not to be the right one, he screwed up and did not know what to look or ask for. He bought it off someone and gave a TON for it, usually off some place like FEEBAY> So he wants his $ back and that is his asking price!! So he advertises it here on FABO,... us more experienced guys say, WTF is this dude thinking???? crook, ignorant, or is he short on his mortgage payment??????

Back decades ago before that idiot asshole A Gore invented to 'net, (ha) I knew a local guy with huge Mopar yard.. Locals brought him parts cars, parts.... He advertised on Hemmins and MCG. He knew the "national" going price very well . The locals would later go to his yard, seeking a part, and he would price it to them at his "going national price".... which was wayyyy more than the LOCAL going price!!! It was is business, not a local business....... Salt in a wound!!!!!!!
Another thing. I have built many 68-70 B Bodies, but I have not done so since maybe 2002 or so. That is 15 years. Prices and supply and demand of parts change. If I base what I will pay for a given part on what I paid 15 years ago, I might be in for a surprise. And then too, some prices today for some parts, are just as cheap as 20 years ago.
