You can expect to get loads of time wasters.... and people wanting to knock you down to £40, share postage, meet them half way, etc.... if you're really unlucky and decide to auction it on Ebay you can also expect more 'phantom bids' from buyers who then don't pay for the item knowing you can't leave them negative feedback in return!

Anytime fella

ive only had one person buy something off me on ebay and not pay.... all others have been spot on, wether selling something worth a fiver to my old car at 2grand.

on ebay someones selling a evo 8 version of it, reserve set at 150 with 3 days left, which id presume that no1 wants to buy that, id put ur exhaust for sale on here to b honest, would be easier and free i guess. if u do put it on ebay, stick a hundred pound reserve on it plus theres always a way to find out peoples maximum bids on ur item so if it turns out its not much, end the listing more than one day before the end of auction, n sell elsewhere

Hoping to recover some money by selling the HKS, shame though as its a lovely looking exhaust.

some more...


YouTube - WRX STi launch w/ blitz nur spec exhaust

YouTube - blitz nur spec r on my01 wrx LOUD!

YouTube - Subaru Impreza STi Blitz Exhaust Flame Pop

fuel for thought the last one shows the pop you get, ive noticed with mine sometimes getting a little flame....plus i tried my hardest to find the video that made me go out and buy one, but couldnt find it. basically was recording of this guy with one fitted to his new shape driving round an indoor multi storey setting off all the car alarms, lol. a guy up my street who has an mr2 has a sensitive alarm on his and i make it my mission to drive past evrynight when i fin work (and whenever) and give just the right revs it sets his alarm off evrytime lol some readers may think im immature but he nearly spanked his car into mine few weeks back leathering it up the street and obviously having a lack of driving skills! so this is payback

hope those vids help anyway

Ash

Use a friends account o bid a daft amount like £10,000 it'll automatically bid just above the highest bid of everyone else.

Ie. if the item is selling for £10 but someone has but a high bid of £50, you're mate bids £10000 and it'll show as selling for £51.

Then withdraw the friends bid stating that you entered the wrong amount, get them to bid again just under the maximum bid of the other bidder
