While trolling thru Ebay for S2000 parts I came across this item for sale Cooling Plate

The current bid was only $0.88 and I thought to myself if I could get it for only a few bucks this might not be bad. I then started to look how much shipping was and I was in for a shock $168.90 for shipping. It goes without saying I didn't bid on it but I thought I would post this up so no one else would get caught by this.

Read everthing about the item before bidding!!

 

lol this is common practice on ebay.

did you REALLY think youd get a carbon fiber cooling plate for $1??

 

I think that's how sellers defeat ebay's crappy auction fees based on % bid price before shipping

LOL. This is not new news brother. Ebay fees are a big percentage so sellers just mark their items for $1 or 2 so they dont get robbed too.

 

Brilliant!!! LOLOL

 

WORD...

 

also so that you cant return the product, since the refund will only be $1-2 since the rest is considered "shipping cost"
