Folks at world, I am continually hearing of prices on eBay being MUCH higher than that charged by many of the parts suppliers. My experience was that window seals for the MGB GT went for something ou

I've done my fair share of buying and selling on e-bay. The bottom line is to keep your Moss - Victoria Brit - and Proper MG catalog on your lap. Also remember if it sounds too good to be true, it pr

It does happen but not very often. I've found Ebay to be a good source for parts. But you have to know what you are looking for and what it is worth and then bid accordingly. On a couple of occasions

I was wondering what happened to "redqueen". I ended up buying a new roadster fender from him - the bid was a bit less than new but he also shipped UPS whereas the major retailers ship by truck. So I

Ebay is starting to honk me off. In the good old days you would sell, trade or give parts to people who needed them for a reasonable 'fixed' price. Now everyone thinks they have a long lost gem which

Bill, I'm afraid I don't agree with your statement about eBay. The great thing about eBay is you can find the part you want (eventually). If you had to go to every swap meet (autojumble) on the plane

If you follow the Ebay bids, the "sniping" is how most things go. I don't have the software, but I have always bought from ALL auctions that way. No reason to drive the price up early. As a buyer it
