Parts Prices, WTF?!

If you sell parts ask what ever you wish. If no body bites it's a part that no one wants or needs, it is a piece of junk, or you want way too much for it. Or it could be all the above. If you are a buyer don't ***** if you think it is too much, just don't buy it and walk on by! Simple as that.

toolmanmike, you are 100% correct.
If you don't like the price, find it somewhere else.
That has never been in dispute. I think a lot of people are missing the point of my original post, which was, simply to shed some light on the fact that there are people out there in MOPAR land who think that some old part in the back of their garage is like a lottery ticket.
Ask a fair price for the part and let somebody else use it on their car, so they can enjoy their car, and the world can enjoy seeing the old car that reminds them of the special times they had with their Grandpa or their Dad.
