Parts Prices, WTF?!

The facebook groups are crazy! $900 date coded starters and alternators. I saw one guy selling "factory low mile" amber turn signal bulbs for $25 a piece on facebook. I try to sell parts cheap on here, not to make any money, but it does take me time to pull parts, box them up, and ship them. Heck, ive got a ton of stuff i cant GIVE AWAY. Some parts i would just be too embarrassed to even ask money for, like all those slant six parts and that 7.25" rearend i keep tripping over

Oddly enough, the stuff people throw away, is the stuff that gets expensive. Just look at McDonalds toys.... Some people pay serious money for that crap.
