hehe - some people either dont look at new prices before they bid or just get "ebay rage" and wont be beaten to it!!
I see its still got almost 2 days to go yet - and bidder 3 definately seems to have a case of "i must have the top bid" - something like
20 bids till he was top!! I just hope it wasnt "Toady" off here as i have gotta put my hand up John and say i did link him towards that
earlier!!!
linky
At least it was always gonna take over £100 to win anyway so hope i havent cost you a bargain with you being the previous high bidder!!

An Italian guy just paid 58 Euros for a standard, s/hand, tatty, Escort thermostat housing, on fleabay. Plus 30Euros P&P. 
You know, the one we all want to get rid of. Usually goes for 0.99p, if you are lucky.
Wonder if he wants to buy a bridge?

Someone sold one of those £55 lolocost S/S silencers with a bit of pipe for 72 quid this week, my grandad allways said there was money in shite.
On the other hand i have seen two 1800 zetec engines sell for 99p and £16 just yesterday.

Nah, I hadn't placed a bid on it, tbh I wouldn't have gone much more than the £40 it was sat at, your never quite sure of the history of
second hand oil components, engine blow ups etc........

Yes indeed.
The buyer of the 99p one had a username of alfaZIL.
Wonder who that could be ?

Dont worry, I wasn't bidder 3. Think I'd prefer a new one as the life of the engine depends on it.
