PT, I have a complete set-up (gauge pod w/ oil pressure gauge and vac gauge, lens, and the housing. I gathered evrything up seperately (spent too much $). I'd need to get $100 + shipping if you were interested. I'd even throw in another complete dash cluster if you needed it. Let me know if you need any pics (it's buried!). Thanks. Brian

HuggerCST · 07-31-2004, 10:21 AM

You need just the gauge? I may have one FS soon. I will let you know.

**StingRay** · 07-31-2004, 11:44 AM

Gee I've been screwed on Ebay countless times by Americans and from what I've read here on the board many board members have been screwed by fellow Americans too. I guess that makes ALL Americans crooks too

Please think about what you are saying and just how stupid it sounds.

Burnsman Thanks For The Offer But I Just Need The Gauge. Sorry If I Offended Anyone But I Am A Little Pi--ed Off About Getting Shafted Out Of 225.00, It Was Not Directed At Canadians Its Just That I Have Mixed Feelings On The Shipping Time It Takes From Canada To The Us. Sorry If I Offended Anyone, I Would Not Feel Bad About Buying From A Canadian Board Member Just Ebay.

**StingRay** · 08-01-2004, 12:44 AM

Thanks. It takes just as long coming this way and doesn't make us any more happy than it does you either getting from or shipping to. Gotta remember there is an international border between us and it adds time to the shipment. Typically most postal shipments take 10 days but with complications and customs can take up to six weeks. If it's shipped via something like Fed Ex and you can get a shipment number to your customs broker and you have a GOOD reason to get it in a hurry most shipments can be gotten and cleared from customs in 24 hours. It just costs money!

FIY the last Ebay deal I did was for a so called NOS set of black 72 door panels from a guy in Florida that cost me over 300 Canadian. They got here as average used driver quality that you can get anywhere for 50 bucks.

chevman-67 · 08-01-2004, 10:42 AM

I have shipped lots of stuff myself to the us the fastest iv seen it is about 12 days.No offence to your thread by the way! I hope we are all clear on the board about being shafted and it will give people a bad name and we will POST IT on the board. We'll get on with life as normal.Hope you get it one day and your money isn't a waste.GOOD LUCK.

My latest ebay fiasco was a $7.65 cost shippment a guy wouldn't ship to Canada from the US without me sending him $30 American.. and he replied again and again that he would refund me $10... never happened so I got negative feedback that canadian bid on his auction... like I didnt read the auction and ask him first before I bid... ebay got all our emails to the facts and still ... dosent matter... feedback wont be removed for false statements untruths, lies whatever... if its not done with a court order there( ebay) not interested in settling anything or removing negative feedback.

Anyway...venting.

I may have an extra guage package with vaccum in it also.
