There were 22 people that showed interest, that's not "a bunch" at all. At about $40 per set that's ~$880, chump change.

Why would any business want to make a product that sells 22 units a month when they can make something else that sells 22 units a day. Unfortunetly that's how the SHO market works.

I've only owned a Gen II for a month or so (so maybe I'm wrong), but couldn't the clear corner lights be marketed to Gen II Sable owners too? Not that *that* would increase sales much.

they that means they would have to hike the price up to make it worth their time. if i couldnt find them anywhere i would pay around $100 for a set of brand new clear corners.

Well how many people are like you. I promise you not many will pay $100+ for one set of clear corners.

When it comes down to it, even if you charge 2-3x the price, it still won't be worth the company's time when there are much more popular cars around. That's how business works.

Then, this is a market that is full of people that cries and complaints when a car cost more than a few hundred bucks; how many will pay $100+ for a set of crappy lights?

Add me in for a set as well. I think I must've gotten one of the last sets off ebay from makato. For $100, I'd be willing to get 2 sets. I paid almost $70 for those. Whats $30 extra.

:madflame:
Sorry, but that's a pretty ****** thing to do here - offer an item for sale and then throw it on eBay to the highest bidder.

For those interested, I had committed to buying these clear corners, was given a total with shipping, had withdrawn the money Friday to get a money order, and then get the PM above.

Nothing personal :finger:, but I would like to encourage other to please not bid on the lights and encourage "highest bidder" trolling like this. This isn't how THIS forum works.... :rant:








For those interested, the price I was quoted was $60 shipped

hmm, judging by why krazyraven said he is putting lights on ebay, i dont think it has to do with making more money. dude your focus is just on that you committed to buying them at 60 shipped but really there was probably lots of other people on here that made the same commitment. he just wants to be fair and not be bias like he said. i think hes being very fair with these corner lights. well i guess the only thing im try to say is just

BACK OFF!!!!!!!!

First, I want to apologize to NEUSHOER for taking the thread off-topic.


I stand by what I said. You made an agreement, and then welched on it when you saw you could make more money :finger:


Sorry, but in most people's book, that simply isn't right.


Oh, and the posts and links will stand, as per the MODS,...

... I want to make sure everyone here knows what corner lights to NOT bid on.


Here's the entire PM chain, we'll let the other's here be the judge of who's right:

PM me how much. Shipping will be to zip-code edited.

Thanks!

how does 60 shipped sound?


Storm-Chaser said:
Sounds great! Send (email) me your address and I'll get a money order in the mail, as soon as I hear back.

Thanks again!

Hey Revere sho - this is between me and him - and other forum members deserve to know the stunt he pulled. Why don't you waste you time asking him why he had to drive to Georgia to get his cams welded....?

So, I got that wrong - BIG DEAL. At least I didn't welch against another forum member and have the integrity to admit when I'm wrong. I would much rather be chastized for bad memory, than have shit for a reputation. You can try to weasel out of this all you want, but the fact is you made an offer, made an agreement, and then welched on it. Period. Dot.


Here's the time line.
