I'll take a dozen at this price!
One of the other Ebay tractor parts dealers has them for a Buy It Now price of $2.00. I guess this bidder is too lazy to do a little searching.

awh, Patrick is very good at using a low starting price with a reserve, but if you'll notice most of his buyers don't have big numbers. We sell on ebay, but I don't like his system.....Kelly.

Yeah, I see him list things like $20 toplinks for $5. When I check the shipping cost it's usually about $12. If I can buy the same toplink locally for $20 plus tax that means his toplink is worth about $8 - $10 to me. So I sometimes bid that amount and it never comes close to his reserve.

Interesting. I bought 2 of these as recently as last fall at my local CNH dealer. I cannot at this time remember the price but I'm sure that it was below $5.00 eash.

I just bought one of those myself. Price: $2 + $2 shipping.
the funniest part is that another of these same items will be relisted within 24 hours after this auction closes.
minimum bid? $2

I don't know what it is about auctions. The one-upsmanship gets a hold of a body. Well, at least Cheap will make some money on that deal if he gets paid for it.

It will be interesting to watch and see if the high bidder gets a negative feedback for non-payment.
