Default 928PartsEast liquidating already?

It looks like 928partseast is liquidating his inventory on Ebay. That didn't last very long. I hope that he didn't pay Mason too much for his inventory.

There are a number of auctions, but here's a link to one of them:

I could use two of those (at least the leather) but I don't need 16 of them.

Hmm, that sucks for him. He didn't seem to have much of a plan. I wish him the best.

Sorry to see it happen. I got the feeling he wasn't accurately judging the 928 used parts market.

Yeah, I also thought his prices were too high. If he was basing the prices on the 928 Intl. prices, that was a mistake for someone starting from scratch, and especially someone starting with Mason's inventory. I thought he would realize this and adjust his prices. This seems like a drastic step.

I hope he didn't lose too much on that "deal."

He'd only been in it for a couple of months, there had to be a real lack of liquid cash to make this not work so quick.

I feel for him, hope he gets some of his investment back in a quick sell of parts.

Those wheels - 31 of them, I believe - might be interesting to the VW crowd.

They are pretty cheap, considering that a single new one of these costs more than $500.
