Well apparently if you read the ad and not just the title, you get a $0.05 discount!!!

 

[chief1562]

OK. This is totally insane.

I know you can get these for about $5-7 each.

But 4 for $45.00 better include free shipping and lube.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong,..but once upon a time weren't these available at the local auto parts store for like $15?

 

[tsquale]

$1500 for Streethawks...used Streethawks... $150 for domes....good grief he is smoking some good shit.

i think this may qualify as an overpriced item unless the inboard lights are mars lights.  it looks similar to one that member tsquale recently picked up.

Definitely a rip off Ken. Especially since he had it listed for the longest time for only $519..which was still high

[Stampeed Valkyrie]

See now this I am not so sure about..

I don't think this is an astronomical price for a Visibar in great shape with a CP25.   

I had to source a Visibar from Ryan,  and after refurbishing it and getting it back out to the person requesting it.   They had more into the bar then what this guy was selling it for.

The CP25 by itself in ok shape are going for about $125,  in excellent shape closer to $200.

Forgive me if this has been posted already...I've been off the board for a while.

Franken Aero at its finest.

 If the seller gets his opening bid... I'll have some  Aeros  going to the Bay!!

C/C domes on a wrecker bar... :undecided:

Yours for $425...complete with incorrect dome!

 

[EHFD_Tower_751]

found an mx7000 on ebay for $100.

Whats wrong with that you may ask??...............wants 170.00 for shipping. I had one shipped for less than 50, but that was a couple years ago.

 

[Mrlunchbox]

Ha ha  500$ for two "slightly used"??

Read the description at the bottom  States "Retail price is 173$ each"... Well correct me if I am wrong but isn't 173 + 173 = 346?? And these are slightly used... 

Gotta love a rip off!

Submitted for your consideration: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Star-Mini-Bar-9200HV-Strobe-Light-Bar-/141499767845

A Star minibar, gutted and stuffed with a loose pair of reclaimed strobe tubes and a random power supply. And why use just one power cord, when you can splice together multiple mismatched segments?

Cracks me up to see people adding "antique" "vintage" or "retro" and they think it adds hundreds of dollars in value.  I get adding a few bucks if they are selling rare or flawless stuff but these are light bars not Ming Dynasty vases....lol.

I offered a REASONABLE $110+shipping for the 12X . . . I think he added in an extra zero!

 

[Stampeed Valkyrie]

Again I may be wrong on this.. but I believe that 12X is one of the bars I did a full restoration on about 12+ years ago.     This guy is in my backyard and I did work on twins well before I ever ended up here on ELB.

And BTW he has had that AD up there for a LOOOOOOONG time!

John M. you got a deal from me if this sells

You can build them with any Whelen parts and it would be somewhat correct......However, $700 for that?!?!?!.
