I feel like I've been listing things on eBay all afternoon. Almost done. You did read my last post, right?

Edit: Everything HERE

Well, almost everything. Ran out of light to take photos, a few more lots coming tomorrow.

Take that listing of the MR2s down and I'll pay you $10 right now for it.


I want to buy a bit of everything but I have the other half of each lot and because you're listing it on ebay I can't split the order without going through a even more complicated process.
 
Like I said, I want maximum dollar they will bring and I started them at the lowest amount I think is fair, then will see where they go. You want, you bid. :)
 
I hope Phil (and whoever else is interested) can frequently stay in touch with this thread for the next 4 days.

I want (almost) all the MR2s. Please don't bid on that unless you want to negotiate.

Who needs a LOT of Pikes Peak Celicas? I only need 7 of the Pikes Peak Celica (the TH is not one of them) and if anyone is willing to buy those off me, let me know and we can split the bill on that.
 
If I was willing to take minimum bid I wouldn't put it on an auction site.

Listen, I need the money and this go around I'd like to get as much as possible. If you can't afford them or don't need them all, don't bid.
 
I'd buy it now if you listed it as such actually. Can we possibly negotiates prices? I'm sure Cano and I are ready to pay more for it if we can secure the cars for ourselves right now.


Cano, get on ARM
!
 
Forgot to mention that ALL of these listings are listed for WAY LESS than I paid for all these cars. Most of them came from eBay for $2-5 + shipping (another $5 on top...) Selling them for double what they are listed at may not even make up for what I paid.

That's bound to happen... I think you should know that very well. I pay $1.37 for my cars and here I am selling them for 50 cents. Everyone who legitimately wants to get rid of their stuff cannot expect to break even THAT easily.


I'm not trying to snag a supreme deal off you, it's just that I don't want to compete with another person and I'll even pay more than the starting bid for it.
 
Well if it comes down to it on the last day if you want to know how many are watching the auction(s) all you have to do is ask...

:lol: not really, $12 would be like my absolute limit for a $TH. In fact it's past like $2, but it's Jason so I wouldn't mind. But not anymore lol.

$THs are supemarket finds or 1-on-1 trades. I've never bought one from someone else.

$20 bid going on that 2000GT Set 👍

Dude, if I give you the $12 you want for the 2000GT, would you set it aside?

HAHAHAAHAHA beat that cano!




Anyyways... Had a great ebay day for me today! sold $760 worth of my collection! (sadly that was only 4 items :/ )

either way, ive got some cash burning a hole in my pocket... and that 1/18 Porsche Transporter on Exoto.com looks mighty appealing 👍
 
Damn, wish I had better stuff to sell for that much. I need a car. :lol:

Edit: Already got someone asking me to end the EP3 Civic auction with his offer. He didn't say how much though.

Ya, my pieces are hard to part with... but I have more good stuff than I have space for, so I gotta sell some of it.

Oh by the way-- Does anyone Know what the 1/18 Deora 2 is worth? I couldn't find one for sale on google...
 
Some of those photos I took today came out great. I guess when I want to take photos of my cars I have to do it at 3:00 in the afternoon, on a white board next to the sliding glass door. :P
 
A Fluorescent tube is usually enough even with a crappy point and shoot. I made some photos with pretty good clarity before.
 
It just seems like my camera hates artificial light for some reason. Using the sun it works better.

Anyway, just got this offer:

Ep3 lot -12
Civic si (without big spoiler) -35
S2000- 20
Nsx- 30
Total 97usd..

Hmmm.

When I sold off much of my Rod Strickland basketball card collection, I received a lot of offers. About half of them were actually pretty decent deal, so I took them(some I haggled). It's weird not to present the "number" with a request like that though. :crazy:
