$100 BBP Abod Axels?

Have you heard of something like this?

I bought a set of cut down big bolt axles for my a-body for 150.00
First off I was told that they had green bearrings on them. nope they had crusty stock bearrings on them and the adjuster was porked.

I thought well.... maybe the guy didnt know what green bearings are no biggie. I would just fix them. I am soooo glad I tried to test fit them before I had new bearings pressed!

Turns out ..............
they were just what the guy said. they were cut down B body axles. they fit just fine. if you were going to use an open carrier but I have a sure grip so now I am sitting with a set of axles that are usless to me. might make a Mail box post out of them as a reminder.

So, I had to order axles. with what I have into this whole axle deal,
I have what I would of spent on a nice set of mosers or strange. and had a few bucks left over. all said and done I spent 500.00 on a 350.00 set of axles to get the right thing.

Never fails ! If I try to save 10 bucks I end up spending 50.00 or more. than what I had planned.

It just re assures me that I will not to ever buy anything that is sight unseen.

for me I never seem to get what I expect.

Ill wait for the next thread to ***** about how many time I have been ripped from buying sub par parts on e-gouge. All I know is that it is pretty discouraging.
