That's the "Buy It Now" price for someone in a hurry. He who
won't wait will pay through the nose.

Don't see anything wrong personally as the price is presumably
aimed high to indicate a value and encourage bidding. Didn't
work though, did it? Bidding closed with no bids. So maybe
someone could have bought them for £100.01.

Look at this Ebayer's feedback. 100% positive and some nice
comments when buying and selling.

you couldnt have bought them for £100.01 because there was a reserve
on them , Just waiting to see if he re-lists it.

as I said, price up new non-genuine ones... cost you nearly as much.
especially if they have headlights in 'em as well as the other lights.

optimist. I doubt they'll make 400. having said that, the inner wing plus
outer wing plus headlamp panel, unpainted, is about 120 from Paddock. They
appear to have at least the indicators and sidelights (which are cheap), may
have headlights, doesn't say and I can't see. Dunno how much the rubber
eyebrows are.

so you're talking not far short of 300 to buy unpainted ones, which you
still have to paint, the only real problem is that dent, which could be
sorted with filler.
