Honest opinion on this price please
I have just had a call from a chap asking for a Magnex S/steel exhaust for a S2 rs turbo
I quoted him £170 DELIVERED to devon for a MINT conditin full system with a choice of tailpipe size
He said he would think about it
Not trying to nock the bloke , but i thought that was a good deal
Yes or No ????????
Honest opinions please as im quite shocked he didnt rip my arm of

Thats a cheap price but don't forget there is always loads of cheap shite on ebay for peanuts. People don't always realise you get what you pay for.

PassionFord Post Whore!!
I'd want a warenty for that money
Seriously though i sold my near new scorpion for 150 and that was cheap as i just wanted rid of it so your price is good especially from a robbing trader

BUT,,from a propper trader that you can contact if your unhappy / not as described etc , and will deliver to your door the next day , unlike the e/bay tossers who send shite and spend your money then send the part when they can be arsed
Buying from a trader will always cost a little more but people these days would rather pay a little more and get good service rather than risk the cash on fleebay

The art is knowing who is and who isnt decent , but sadly e/bay is getting worse and worse for total tossers who will rip you of
not you , but there are some

Ive got a full magnex lying in the trees in my back garden(been there for about a year), reckon i could easy get £100 for it round my way. Its not in dazzling conditon as all kinds of wildlife have been rumaging round it and i cant be arsed with the hassle of pakaging and sending so i'd say around £170 is fair from a trader to your door

And the 
's on e-bay will try to rip you off on anything. Friend had to send a check (another e-bay expert friend suggested it was dodgey) to this guy who was selling two fibreglass wings for a 20 year old ford cargo. That was three weeks agao and he hasnt sent them out.
I mean, Come On, its some bloody wings that will only fit a ford cargo, not some mass market, high demand thing that will get 10 or 20 people! There are some real wankers out there.

That sounds like a proper fair price, especially to your door!
The fella is obviously a skint mo fo or just tight!
BTW Paul, what would you charge for a mint lambda sensor off a saph?

price is fairly average IMO,about what you'd expect from a trader,nothing special,especially not worth ripping your arm off for. i would ask then shop around as well,if he can get the same thing or nearly the same thing for half the price then why shouldnt he?

Well how much is one new anyway, I have no idea but I bet it's alot more than that, a stainless exhaust will never fuck up unless it's all mangled which I am sure it is most definately not. Good post tho, shows you actually are a genuine guy and not just out for the dough.

the reason i did the post i bet he will struggle to get a better price tho from a propper trader
Easy to be undercut by a man in the street but as long as most think its a fair price then im happy
