YellowJacket,

Your "lowball" bid has been noted. Unfortunately, it did not meet the "reserve" price.

Gee, this is kinda like evilBay only more fun.

Yeah, I totally understand... the bummer for me is that this is only a garage dust/scratch cover (a cool one!) and does nothing for the elements if its parked outside... so its a specialty or collector item exclusively...

I cannot justify the collect-ability and the lack of function at that price.

But for $40 I could use it to cover my 85 when its in the garage every now and then. For $100 bucks I am gonna shop for something that offers the flexibility to also offer protection from the elements.

Good luck with the sale.

YellowJacket,

You hit the nail on the head - I am waiting for the collector "offer". The best part is, I have had it for many years and can wait for that one special buyer.

YellowJacket · 10-17-2009, 07:00 PM

Post it on MR2OC.Com as well... there are some collectors on there.

YJ,

Thanks for the suggestion - I'll do that.
