Talking Ebay is my friend!

Just picked up one of these boys:


Saved more than a hundred dollars or so. I ended up winnning the bid at 137.50 which I thought was pretty good considering that another was at the "buy it now" price of around 250. I plan on taking my 20 out of my front seat and putting this console in.

Was that from that guy up in Arkansas? If it is, I bought one from him as well.

I paid full price for mine, however, because I noticed that the ones he had on auction (versus the ones in his store) had a notation that there might be some slight shipping damage (scratches, pressure indentations, etc) on the units, while the ones that were in his store at full price made no such mention.

I'm so **** about my truck I figured I'd just go ahead and spend a few extra bucks to get one that was perfect. For what it's worth, mine arrived quickly, well-packaged, and in excellent condition!

Yeah it was the guy from AK. He had the other one up for 245 and this one started at 125. It has alittle indention from all i could tell from the picture. But for 120 bucks cheaper i'll live with it. I am hoping i will like the new floor console. if not i will turn around and sell it. I'm looking forward to putting it in. It should be done by this weekend and i'll post pics to let everyone know how i like it. If i do like it i'll will more than likely sell my 20 seat but i'll let everyone know

The guy was located in Van Buren, AR, and you could easily do a search for him on ebay (the seller name was "rcainternationalwholesale") and probably drop him an email to see if you could come by and pick one up....

Btown-
You got lucky I forgot about that auction this morning. I had it in my watch list but forgot it was ending until 15 minutes after it was over. We would have been fighting for it If you decide you don't like it, can you put me at the top of the list for it?

Do you have coilovers and are they cranked? I don't know how in the world you are not rubbing, I've done a good amount of trimming and am still rubbing with coilovers. Are you the one who emailed me asking if the setup would work?

thank you for forgetting about it. I'm sure there will be another one out there. Like i said before, I am going to try it out and if i don't like it you will be the first i will offer it to. I got up extra early this morning so i could be on here waiting on it.
