It's the fucking idiots on Ebay who think they have got somthing special , there was a STD headlight priced at £150 the other week , and there is a guy who keeps trying to sell a brand new red rocker cover for £1000 .......
Trouble is, some people are actually stupid enough to bid on and buy these rediculous price parts, and hence people keep doing it ... A STD escos gearknob is £8 from ford ffs , and yousee them going for £20-30 all the time.
Another good one is hockey sticks, I am watching one at the moment, brand new gen bit, it's at £100 already with 2 days left to go, again £90 from ford
Just idiots and dreamers who think people will pay through the nose for a shitty old escort bit , then get offended when you tell them ford do exactly the same thing for hlaf the start price

nope,not anymore I was looking at that as i've just scratched my brand new one on its first outing ....looking at that price i think i'll just repair it. Anyone find it strange that this seller is now selling certain items like this as a private listing? I've brought quite a few things off him before and none were private listings...probably bumping the price up himself

I blame the breakers high prices for it escalating, some think a bloody nut bis worth millions if fitted as oe to a cossie.
I think the breakers take the piss and everyone jumps on the bandwagon.

Supply and demand and human nature
We all want the cheapest price when buying and the best price when we are selling.. fact
With patience you will find the parts you need at reasonable prices
