Title: Vintage Rare NOS - Yeah Right
Post by: FC0058 on May 10, 2012, 10:38:00 PM
Ebay Item #170837046494

I am getting a little sick of people trying to rip other off, so asked the seller this:

Dear fx.fj.holden.48-55,

Why have you listed this item as "Vintage Rare NOS" this is a reproduction by "Aussie Speed" made in the last 2 to 3 years and as far as I know are still being produced.

This is not vintage or rare and by no means new old stock.

Obviously I am not expecting an answer

John, I looked at the sale and he said that the black ones are nos and the red one is a repo. But there is no tags or part no's on them that I can see, so it would be a case of buyer beware unless you could look at them first. Up to $910 last night.
Regards Jim

To the sellers credit he answered and agreed it was listed incorrectly, his mistake.

Well done that man.

I looked on the Aussiespeed site, they still list the sideplates from $439-$499 as well as a few other items for early greys, so this could be a good buy.

Hi Jim
Yes it could be a good buy, however one should be aware that the earlier side plates release by AUSSIE SPEED where prototype's and are for display only as they do not fit, "is this one of them" they sold for around $200.

Cheers Jim
