i have to comment again. KDF. honestly who is going to make australian vw heads look worse? the people who say they don't want stuff sold overseas (not that i can remember seeing people bitching about that in this thread at the begining) or those who jack up the prices to ridiculous levels just to make a quick buck?
it is sad to see a fellow vw person leaving due to dissagreements...... actually if it stops you ripping off some poor sod in the future because you don't know what a part is and you have no-one to ask, all the better.
BTW i have yet to sell or buy from OS, but i did give a guy in the US an oval steering column for his car. i had it and would never have used it, he needed one.... yes i had an idea what it was worth but i gave it to him for what it cost me. ie nothing.

ok. end bitch here.

Maybe we should be buying Hyundai excels and storing them, I'm sure in 30-40 years time there will be a Forum of die hard buyers/sellers, having the same arguements !!!:vader

I took a few pics at The Day Of last year in Melb I remember seeing about 5 or 6 different type of side strips.

Both shape of the trim and the way they were fitted to the cars aswell.

You guys ??


Man you guys need to just melow out...

I am also keen to get a copy of the world wide price list which you use to decide what has value and what doesn't, if you can't supply it I am keen to see your certificate of "GOD" status that gives you the rights to value VW parts the world over.

You are all very very funny, to argue about something on which you can only comment if you your self have never done it and we have all done it so we should not argue. :o

In short I know that most of the people on here have at some time sold stuff to the USA for no other reason than to MAKE MONEY, I do it and I buy from them to sell here and the process goes on.

Do I feel a need to abuse people in grade 10 language to shown my smarts ??? mmm no I just go onto some more American forums and get me some more USA stuff and sell some more Aussie stuff. Now what was the point of all this again ??

Oh yeah that is right, if someone wants to pay heaps why does that mean he is getting ripped off ? It just means he wants it more, ever been to an auction ? price don't always reflect value, and value don't always reflect price... In fact if they ever meet it is only in the mind of the new owner.

Build a bridge and get over it people, this is helping NO ONE .....:kiss:kiss
