Default FS: 993 Ducktail $400 plus shipping

I purchased the ducktail from Rennspd off Ebay. I paid $450 plus $40 to ship.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Porsche-993-...d47e1c&vxp=mtr

I took a chance, even though Al Z had a bad experience. I may have gotten lucky, not sure.

The ducktail is in great condition, maybe a light sand and a paint job to match your car. I have the box and packing materials from Rennspd I can reuse to ship to you.

I'm selling because I was going to see how the ducktail looks on the RS clone. I ended up buying a 993TT so I'm going to focus my priorities and $$ there.

I don't see how $425 plus $40 shipping is a good deal when it is so close to what the eBay listing price is.

I am tempted but I think I will go with a Getty or MA Shaw as they have a good rep.

I am glad some of you guys did not have the experience I did with Peter at rennspd.
The duck tail he sent me was warped about 3/4 of an inch on the back end where it sits over the tail light on the drivers side. It had several imperfections on the fiberglass . After he finally agreed on my returning it. He claimed that it was damaged during shipping and wanted me to file a frudelant claim with fed ex. When I refused, he did not refund me the full amount and kept 250 for the repairs as he stated and the over 65 for shipping which was already paid.
At the end he kept over 300 for a duck tail and never refunded me the money.
You are better off spending a few more bucks and buying a quality item from MA shaw or Getty design.

Michael,
I have never bought a new duck tail. My car came with one as well as the original c4s tail. I was basically saying he was a stand up guy and it sounded like a good price. My bad.

^^ Thank you Mark and Scott, I appreciate the kind words.

Yes, I consider myself lucky. I believe AL and sorry he had that bad experience. I would be PO'd as well if I were him.

Honestly, I looked into buying a Shaw and it was $695 plus $150 for shipping. So, I wanted to save a couple bucks (already have a wing) and throw some caution into wind. The RS duck tail came in excellent condition, fast ship and I couldn't have been happier. It was worth the $490.

Whoever buys this one, I'll be happy to send pics, whatever works best.

No disrespect to seller intended. I was just thinking out loud through the keyboard. I probably should have kept it to myself

None taken sir.

I didn't claim it was a smoking deal and Mark was just being kind and supportive like he always is.

Rest assured though its in great condition.
