I paid $90 for my great-condition black leather 4-spoke wheel and thought that was exorbitant

...but $1200? The best-regarded Porsche wheel guys in the country only charge $300.

For some items I've heard of the Porsche tax but you'd swear some vendors think their parts are 50% gold by weight.

Yes, I think this guy is a bit "high".

I paid $350 shipped for a 997 multifuction tiptronic wheel with the airbag.
