UGH - My inspires!

I FINALLY found some inspire tails on ebay last night.

They had a week time on them.

Started at 1 dollar and no reserve.

Today, the auction looks like this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1

I emailed him last night about a buy it now price and got no response.

This is so frustrating

that's a great price, but of course, the shipping is pathetic. yeah i know it's still cheap, but duh....people that try to 'sneak-rape' people with shipping just irritate the hell outta me. he probably didn't respond because he's dumb. lol...good luck i hope you get them either way

Unfortunately the part is coming from Japan, that is why the shipping is so expensive.....

May just pay the 300 that a few board members want for theirs. At least they aren't cracked like that one.

He offers alternative shipping methods I think. EMS is really fast shipping from Japan. My brother ordered his tails off Ebay from that guy and got his in 5 days. Literally on the front porch on day 5. But other auctions do the whole sneak rape thing. Like $25 for the item and $25 for shipping on something that "list price" $54.99 buy from us and save....... that pisses me off really bad too.

Demons, if you don't mind me asking, what did you get them for? I know what I offered him so I assume you were higher

Just curious as to what I should expect to pay

There isn't anything too special about the tails except they get rid of the ugly orange on the stock us ones.

I'd have done near 300 if they were perfect, but the one had a crack.
