Ebay stuff

oh yeah, that addiction comes easy.

who was it that said they didn't want to own a ferrari 'cuz you have to collect so many books and other memorabilia junk if you're a ferrari fan?

too true!

doody.

 

What are the vid's like ? Worth buying ?

 

Hi Adnaan,

Phew!! At last I can come out of the closet...YES, I AM AN E-BAY ADDICT!! I have tried to cut down over the past 12 months, but I really enjoy the online auction experience!

I have bought the Ferrari 308/328/Mondial manuals on e-Bay as well as the Parts Equivalency List. Do yourself a favour and just avoid the latter if it ever raises its head again - it's a total rip-off.

Aah!! Also got two great autographed photos of Jody Scheckter - one in the Ferrari 312 T4 and the other in the Wolf Racing car.

Cheers, MARK

 

I think I have the 348 somewhere, can't really remember what it's like. Think i'll fish it out later.
I might try to find the 355 one, once you have watched it could you tell me if it's any good?
& don't worry about the addiction to bidding on ebay. My house is top to bottom from signed drumheads to naughty playing cards
One of my 1st buy's was a F40 owners manual.

I did see this dvd though & it's pretty good if I remember

Yup - I have everything from WW-I postcards to antique maps and pinball memorabilia! Damn - no wonder I had to move 6 tons of stuff to the UK when I relocated

Cheers, MARK

 

You have to be very careful with ebay, and yes it is extremely addictive! For example, I've built up a decent Snap On tool kit through the site but only by avoiding junk masquerading under descriptions like 'snap on type' or 'Eurotool (Snap On)'. I made one mistake and bought a 'very good condition' tool and ended up with a rusty peice of c**p so now only buy brand new and refuse to accept anything not in original packaging.

Most amazing of all is the number of lots which sell for MORE than recommended retail price. I have actually seen tools sell for twice rrp on occasions! I looked earlier and found tools with a 'buy now' listing set at full rrp. Some sellers are making a lot of money. Caveat emptor!

Steve dont think i may be of help,but hear goes,built my snap on box up over 24 years,beta tools are qutie nice to use and beat snap on in certain area's,only have a few pieces of beta equipment,ive always deal't with a snap on dealer and a chap that deals in new and good second hand snap on tools off tech's that have for some reason left the trade,pm me what you want and il get you a price and discount,and if the price is to high dont buy it,
cheers
Dale.

 

Thanks Dale. There's always hundreds of snap tool auctions running. I set my max as about 50-60% of rrp and just wait for the right tools to turn up. I don't have any specific wants any more as my kit is fairly comprehensive, but thanks for the offer.

Ok steve,no problem
cheers
