Your Thoughts

[arntufun]

Surfing Ebay and found this ad. This person is selling the instructions for a frunk spring mod. No parts included and you only receive instructions on how to do it via email with this $9.95 purchase.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Can-Am-Phantom-Spyder-Hood-Seat-Spring-Release-INSTRUCTIONS-/190641046718?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr&hash=item2c631784be

I know free enterprise is the American way, but I would like your opinions on this. People that do not know of this site or that BRP sells the parts and instructions for less than $5.00 are going to purchase this. I wonder if the seller got the instructions from this site ???

:chat:

Seems Shady. But what the heck do I know.

[SpydherLuv]

Didn't you see the title? It's for Phantom owners only :joke: :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:

Seriously though, I can see maybe charging a couple of bucks, but $9.95, that's crazy!! Not to mention he/she has already sold 2! Wouldn't it be something if the email they sent you for instructions included a link to the SpyderLovers thread. :shocked:

:roflblack: There's a lot of folks out there who've got :cus: that are bigger than their brains! :roflblack:
But there's a market for stuff like this because there's also a lot of very lazy folks out there who wouldn't take the time to research the issue for solutions! :gaah:

That reminds me of the old classified ad scam for the universal coat hanger for $9.95. The ad had a long description of how great this coat hanger was, listed all the things that could be hung from it and how it could be located almost anywhere.

The buyer got a 6 inch spike with instructions on how to nail it into the wall. :yikes:

[kman]

If you pm me I can sell you a business license for 14.99. Free shipping!

[Bob Denman]

Are you undercutting me K? :roflblack:
The business license instructions PLUS how to recognize an online scam... $13.50! :thumbup: :roflblack:

[ARtraveler]

Sounds like an old Judge Judy case. Someone ordered a used cellphone for $75.00 and received a pictrure of the cell phone. Judy could not break the perpetrator down that this was wrong or deceitful. The seller kept insisting the customer got the cellphone they ordered. Caveat Emptor :roflblack:

[mxz600]

If you check out his other items he has hood spring w/instructions or both hood and seat springs w/instructions for a small up charge plus $6.84 for shipping.

Those people from NC are pretty sharp.

Ok,Bob and I have formed a partnership(as ordered by Judge Judy) and we can let you have the license for 13.99
but we wil send you a second license for free just pay shipping and handling.

[Bob Denman]

Limited time offer and your mileage may vary! :shocked:

[sealfloorboards]

The instructions for the spring loaded opener are just a come-on. Instructions for closing the frunk are $27.95...........for real!!!!.......no kidding.........I was on the design team. Guaranteed to work, no tools required, 100% hand operated. No special training needed, just a very low IQ.

Huh?

[arntufun]

I'm sure this is not a scam, you will get what is advertised, but come on......... this person got the info off one of the Spyder forums.

[Bob Denman]

http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/4/4_1_72.gif Lamont once used the term, "Waste of bandwidth"... I don't think that he meant me specifically; but you never know! :roflblack:

So whate if he sold 2 already ... what if I was number 2 ... and of course im only kidding !!!! Sorry for this I heard it today , but trying to understand some people is like trying to pickup the clean end of a turd . ( that wasnt againist the rules was it ? )

[coz]

Am i charging too much ?

[dannymax]

Difficult to see this going anywhere as a moneymaker but you never know.....a potato that looked like Richard Nixon was the hot ticket item for awhile. :roflblack:

The ways of man are strange, grasshopper! :dontknow:

Heck, I think every potato looks like Richard Nixon! :bbq:

[ThreeWheels]

My thoughts?
Do you REALLY want to know ?

My thoughts..... The price is what it is and the buyers are getting what to them is a good value or they wouldn't be buying it.

HOW MUCH MONEY DO YOU WANT FOR SEAL FLOOR BOARDS ?
Come on..... a couple of pieces of sheet metal....GET REAL.
But, there is design work in it, the knowledge to shape the right piece of metal into the right shape and the law of supply and demand and the manufacturer has the right to make a profit. The buyer chooses whether or not its a good value.

HOW MUCH FOR A BELT TENSIONER?

HOW MUCH FOR ELKA SHOCKS?

HOW MUCH FOR A UTOPIA,BACKREST?

HOW MUCH FOR A SPYDER?

The buyer chooses to pay for what is perceived as value.

Just my opinion, I could be wrong, and I'm certain someoneb will let me know if I am

[Bob Denman]

I'm not seeing it... :dontknow: :roflblack:

What... The... Eff...

Grilled Cheeses looking like Jesus, Nuggets looking like George Washington.

Until today I was unsure if the government had actually spiked our water supply with drugs to keep the populace in check. Now I am sure of it.

ANARCHY NOW! I will be out riding, if you see an uprising, text me with a picture of a George Washington McNugget throwing up the horns. \m/

Honestly now....does anyone actually see Geo. Washington in there? All I see is fat and cholesterol and calories and trans....................:roflblack:

[boborgera]

Actually it looks more like Lincoln , So it might be worth 365$ :banghead:
Methinks it's the beginning of the end:yikes:

I'm not sure if I'll be able to either! :shocked:

What am I saying??? Put enough sauce on it and I could eat a fried moose turd... :thumbup: :roflblack:

[dannymax]

I got a moose turd shaped like Lithuania.....will sacrifice for $449.99!!

Going once.......................:roflblack:

[GLRange]

I saw that as well on Ebay...the same person also has the same instructions listed at 14.95 and I believe 18.95 in an effort to test the market and see what people will pay for the info I presume. Personally I would probably not purchase it but If it was a problem for me what is 9.95 help to solve a small problem on a 25k machine??? He probably won't sell tons of them but bet he does sell a few. I know seems like allot for just info...but really what can you buy these days with 10 bucks. :gaah:

One last thing I will mention...what something is worth is decided by what someone is willing to pay for it.
