Seems like its in the park, there is another one there for $494.

Its so funny, on one hand people are bitching about the high prices and then these type posts pop up claiming some smoking deal or in other words too cheap...

There is NO COMPARISON to an original bubble and door with the under duct work and a cheap chinese one with out the duct/box....

I never said there was, I was just commenting that there was another listed, I did not look to see if it was original or not. However this was not the point or does not seem to be the point of this thread which is someone got something for a lower than anticipated price.

My point is that people are complaining about how the prices have escalated dramatically (as in a bad thing) and you are pointing out that someone got a deal (seemingly a bad thing)....

I can only assume that you have or are trying to sell something similar and are upset that someone paid a price which you think is too low. If this is the case than again I can only surmise that you are someone who feels that this part or that part needs to cost a considerable amount mainly because you have one to sell.

If none of this is the case, then I apologize for the leaps in theory and remain confused as to the intention of this thread.

Guess you should have researched the other one before responding. And actually you are very confused as I just wanted to post about a good deal being out there that someone got. Not complaining at all nor am I selling one. That original assembly simply sold way below market value. Showing there are still good deals currently out there. I do however find this response funny coming from someone who complained about a seller “doing meth” when he priced a part for sale and lives in a certain state…:rolleyes:

Ok well as I said I would do, I apologize for the confusion and my response. I do believe that many Mopar parts are way overpriced, but it is what it is.

I would have bought that in a heartbeat.

That other repro has been on for years.

They do occasionally sell one.

I'd be interested for about half that price and only if I was sure I could install studs and not use glue as the listing states.

I would have bought it also just to have and I already have 3 complete air grabber set-ups... They just don't pop up that often especially cheaper than the reproduction stuff...

What would be a fair market value of the said parts ?
Prices are all over the place... IMO that set-up was easily worth $1400-$1,750. $750-900 Bubble, $300-$400 door and $350-$450 air box keep in mind these are REAL parts with Part numbers and don't compare to the reproduction stuff... Again my opinion on what I have seen stuff sell for verses dream pricing...

I've got a 71 Satellite hood that someone installed a Harwood scoop on crooked.

It's begging to be turned into an N96 hood.

In fact, I can hear it calling right now.
