I had another guy do this with a Solex carb from an early Volvo.
Got this in a box of parts...didnt know a thing about it.
I listed it on ebay for somthing like $10.00 then got PM about its real value. Relisted it for BIN @ $100.00.
British buyer bought it via PayPay. I shipped it and he filed a claim that it was incomplete. This guy did the same thing....stripped it clean. Paypal gave him a refund.
