Factory 72 Air Cleaner worth? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

72Bob · 01-27-2004, 09:15 PM

What does a factory 72 Air cleaner assembly worth?

I just saw this one one EBAY go for over $300 bucks. If they are worth that much I would be rich.

I think that is a joke. It has to be.

1972ChevyGuy · 01-27-2004, 09:24 PM

Check out the history. That one guy looks like he just kept upping the bid and some idiot bought it :P

teeitup · 01-27-2004, 09:39 PM

Wow, I got probably 10 of those, lucky to get $20 each, something is very wrong there!!!!

Bill72BB · 01-27-2004, 09:46 PM

WOW : that must make my BB one with the heat riser worth 600.

*67Fleetsidedream* · 01-27-2004, 09:50 PM

I am in the wrong business. I could go to a junkyard and get a truck load of those. Before I new it I would be a millionaire.

*Gee_Emm* · 01-27-2004, 09:54 PM

he he, someone try emailing the two bidders, ask them what they are on.

Rod · 01-27-2004, 11:19 PM

Must have that rare hemp filter and the guys just out to smoke it. :p

cheyenne10 · 01-28-2004, 02:49 AM

Seller has front clip for buy-it-now at $750. Since when does an air cleaner bring almost 1/2 value of front clip?

Buyers feedback although limited and fairly new seems legitimate on all other purchases.

I can't explain it. Maybe he forgot to mention it was attached to a good SB motor and buyer asked questions and got that too?

smokekiki · 01-28-2004, 02:16 PM

Maybe both are dyslexic and put the decimal point in the wrong place?

lukecp · 01-28-2004, 02:19 PM

DAMN.......i sold one on the board for $5 a few years ago

Eddie H. · 01-28-2004, 08:24 PM

I picked one up at a swap meet for 20 bucks including the heated air tube, carb spacer, and everything.

I think I'll clean it up, paint it, and see if i can get $400?

Castiron9 · 01-29-2004, 01:09 PM

Curiousity killed the cat.I e-mailed the high bidder and asked if I missed something because in my "opinion" this was only worth 20.00....Now I know that maybe I should have just kept my mouth shut but I was just curious..Buyer e-mails me and said that it was an accident and that he bid the wrong amount...Wellllll this morning I get an e-mail from seller saying that the buyer is now offering him only 20.00 as per my guidance...I did not give the guy any guidance...I simply asked a question.......I told the guy if he wanted to "take" 300.00 for an item worth only 20.00 more power to him,,but to not be threating me with some bullshi&^%$ E-bay action..........What are they going to do come and take my computer away

sactoC10 · 01-29-2004, 01:38 PM

that is very, VERY strange

Davy · 01-29-2004, 02:04 PM

People are actually buying pictures of Britney Spears for God's sakes....should we e-mail them and ask "what's up"?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...category=14892

What about the guy that bought this peanut butter & jelly sandwich??

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...&category=1275

$4.75 ??? Come on! It couldn't have cost more than 10 cents to make it.

This air cleaner auction was obviously some sort of mistake, and the buyer and seller would have worked it out on their own.

Now I'm late for my Nader's Raiders Club meeting.

That's funny right there, I don't care who you are.
