    The guy listed it at 19.99, 5 different bidders took the price up to 103.50. So the general public (or at least the highest bidder) has decided it's worth $103.50.
    I don't see how him spending time polishing a few spill trays and then putting them for sale makes him a shyster...

    im from the old school i suppose goatster. its easy to rip people off and definitely not fun when your on the receiving end. human emotion will see you pay too much at auction. the mirror is worth $25-$40. shyster put it on at 19.99 auction when he could of done a buy it now and or best offer. my call mate. shyster it is.

    your entitled to your opinion and i wouldnt question you because i dont really care

    Vombil, I agree with Goat and think you're out of line there mate. eBay is an auction site and the guy auctioned off a part at a reasonable starting price..... To call him a shyster and rip off artist because some idiots bid stupid prices on it is not fair.

    I saw a HG ignition bezel sell the other day for over $100????? I bought five new ones a while ago for $25 ea and fitted them to my restored fascias.... I have one left and am going to list it on EBay with a start price of $25...... I really hope several bidders bid it up over $100 and if they do how does that make me a shyster or rip off artist when I start the auction at the price I paid for it.

    If a bidder is stupid enough to let emotion cloud his judgement then the only person ripping him off is himself.
