USED NSX parts Prices

**shawn110975** · 03-26-2012, 16:37

is it me or are people asking Retail price for a used part on Prime ???

for like 30 dollars more you can get a brand new ( fill in blank ) from the dealership

just scroll thru the for-sale section Im like are you kidding me?

I wanna just post the same parts they are selling for half off.

just to make them think WOW I am Price Gouging other Prime members

come on guys your not using it, it collecting dust in your attic let someone else that loves their car use it and not KILL their wallet

have a heart LOL

and some of the rims that are for sale are you kidding me??? some of those things look like they fell out of the ugly tree, if you dont like them 99% chance other owners dont like them either.

geez

^^ +1 thanks for looking out for the little people... I agree 100%. Whenever I have used parts from any project, I post them to others for very little, and im some cases... nothing at all.

I understand stuff purchased and never used, but even with some of that stuff people just have to understand you will stand to lose quite a bit on a resale.. might as well price it so people can buy it for less than a few dollars under what it was paid for.

Hey Shawn, do you have one of these laying around?

How about the bracket that goes around the fuse box in the engine compartment?

**Joker** · 03-26-2012, 17:43

It is free enterprise. Don't like it then don't buy it.

**OneRedNSX** · 03-26-2012, 17:45

Is is supposed to be your responce to another pricing thread that we just had???

Bottom left hand corner, see the fuse box? See the silver bracket that goes around it? That's what I need. Rusty is fine, I don't care.

Macninja is checking for me too.

I also need the front plastic injector cover.

This is a funny thread. I hope Shawn sells his car at used price and it should be just a little above "give it away" price.

It looks like everyone is trying to make a buck and everybody else is trying to save a buck.

**hatchboi** · 03-26-2012, 21:56

i agree to this also, there are a few things i been looking for and they actually pop up in the used section priced for more then what acura of augusta was selling for brand new.

**shawn110975** · 03-27-2012, 03:27

EAC I will check I think I have it but if not Macninja might

**Honcho** · 03-27-2012, 09:43

People can ask whatever they want- it's a free country. But, I agree if you want something to sell, you have to discount. For example, I just sold my tan seat leather. Brand new from Acura is over $5,000. Brand new aftermarket is $1,200+ for full leather. A lucky Prime member got it from me for over a 50% discount from that. I guess I could have listed them for $5,000, but no one would have bought them. That's just how the marketplace works.

**gdae** · 03-27-2012, 09:57

Whenever something gets posted for sale at a decent price, others nab it like a duck on a junebug.
The overpriced stuff sticks around a long time.

Not long ago I found a (mumble mumble) and a (mumble mumble); I thought about it a minute too long and it was gone.
(Mumbling because I still need the items and don't want to get everyone looking, too.

)

**nsxtasy** · 03-27-2012, 10:42

I think some people forget that many parts are still available new. For example, a bunch of folks wanted to buy a black tow hook cover when a used one was posted for sale, for a price similar to what a dealer charges for a new one. The problem there IMHO isn't that someone was asking close to a new price, but rather, that so many people wanted to buy that used one, when a new one was easily available.

**shawn110975** · 03-27-2012, 12:07

I agree 100%

if they would call acura first get a price,

then look for a used one if the used items are around the same price buy new

its a no-brainer

**Jacob_Seattle** · 03-28-2012, 21:40

Agreed. I just saw some 02+ tail lights for more than new. Excluding the center piece. Very strange or people are hard up for cash.

Ahh, that's the Prime response I was waiting for. Lol.

Yeah I totally agree. Seeing stuff in the used part section the same price or OVER new is pretty goofy.
