You do occasionally still find deals on uncommon (rare is such an over used word) Model-A parts.

Last week I won on eBay a pair of 28-29 front fender lights.

They are not in the best of shape, but will be a good parts source. If ever needed for the NOS pair that I already own. The recently won eBay lights were not cheap.

However, they are such an "uncommon"
item that I just had to have them.

"Sometime" we envision E-Bay as a 17,000 ACRE Warehouse, stocked with "READY TO SHIP" stuff. If things go wrong, we "blame" E-Bay. It's JUST a listing service!!!
MONEY has strange effects on people!!!---Partly GREED!!!
Even Chief, when he was selling something, would say, "I'm just looking for the ONE Guy with the FAT wallet, who CAN & WILL buy it"!!!

ebay is a tool, it is also entertainment. Over the years I have purchased a great deal from the site. Before I buy something I check to see what I can get it from an ebay seller. There are deals out there, but just like going to Sam's, you need to know what you can get it for and what it is worth before you place a bid or press the buy it now button... your mileage may vary
