yea kinda makes you question how he got these in the first place... probably stole them from some car and didn't have time to steal the passenger side taillight.. which explains the 2 chips he said they had (from a bad job of breaking them off haha ) ...

lol

What is ever more of a joke is the guy selling 07 TL-S tails for $350.00 ???

In his ad he writes - "these are $450.00 each at the dealer"......... nothing like ripping someone off.

Geez.........

some sellers do that to cut down on a final value fee from eBay. it is a percentage of what the final value of the item is, so they jack up the shipping to make the final value fee smaller.

eBay not greedy???? You've got to be kidding, with the fees they charge coupled with the fact that they own paypal and hammer you with fees there too, selling on ebay is almost more trouble than it's worth.

Good luck getting any kind of support from ebay, I've been the victim of fraudulent bidders 3x in the last month trying to sell a laptop, and now they're threatening to suspend my account for unpaid listing and final value fees for the 3 auctions that were won by fraudulent bidders. I'm done with ebay... for good.
