Talk about a detailed listing!

JPTL

Good description.
Rare car.
The seller relies heavily on Chuck's Registry.
Chuck, he owes you a when he sells this.

If it was only $25K with that history I'd be borrowing from my retirement funds to buy it!! That's the start. I'm guessing the reserve is going to be much, much higher!

JPTL

Yea, I took another look at the listing and realized that $25 isn't the BIN...but the opening bid - Reserve not met. I edited my post accordingly.
Be interesting to see where this goes.

Great time to buy a set of three, 93, 94, and 95 GTS 5 spds.

Just so you all know it won't be me, 5 minutes ago I was complaining to my wife about the cost of a cookie.

If I had five bucks for every time i have fixed a problem like they fixed September 14, 1998.

And again on Dec 14 2002.

.....talk about copying from my website is more like it?

....at the very least or perhaps a cut of the $?

Greg: you got to me read the whole damn thing!

10/7/03 "Remove and replace entire front end of car and inspect timing belt after tooth belt light came on charge $0.00" Now that's a deal.


10/26/06 "Vibration reported coming from right front of car. Rear right wheel found to be bent; not fixed $0.00" Whaaa?? He must have taken it somewhere else for the wheel, not being able to stand the other charges.

Car looks very nice. Very interested in the final price on this one.

JPTL

I agree.
This guy's using your product to market his car. Just because you provide it at no cost, doesn't mean that others have rights to it.

I was actually referring to the service history-not the information lifted from your site!

I didn't even scroll down past the service history.

Couldn't be clearer than that.
Before threatening copyright infringement (which would likely be immediately effective, per eBay's policies), how about a courteous request of the seller for a reasonable donation toward site maintenance if the car doesn't sell, and a healthier chunk or a modest commission if it does sell.
The information that this seller has gleaned from Chuck and other's collective efforts in gathering the information contained in the Registry, and the implied association with the Registry is certainly effective marketing tool. It's an impressive listing, IMO, due in large part to the Registry association. Chuck's Registry is all about production numbers and rarity which directly relates to collectibility and value.
The use of the Registry info and the implied association to the Registry should be regarded as a marketing tool, and therefore subject to commission - or it shouldn't be used at all.
Just my .02

My personal favorite service item: "Replaced rear tires and performed 4 wheel alignment". Hummm, I wonder what could have led to just the rears wearing just before 6K miles ?:-)

Stunning car with a beautiful interior color...the side-trim is the only thing I would nit-pic over.

C'mon-you're a fellow New Yorker--we have roads that eat tires and ruin alignments!

Bidding has ended. Reserve not met. Sounds like action has taken place.
