Default RE: I think we have hit Peak Norvel


ORIGINAL: Big Al-RCU

Looks like a peak alright. Check this .074, item no 170312208824. It's over $140 and still climbing!
Just goes to show that when too many people get in on a good thing, they wreck it for everybody.

Regarding the particular example you site:

This isn't the best example of a typical Norvel sale, as it happens to be a couple of bidders with (0) and (1) feedback chasing each other up in a bidding war.

For the sellers sake, I hope he gets paid. On the other hand, maybe he dosen't deserve to, as he states the engine is NIB, and if you look at the picture you can see that the engine has obviously been mounted before.

As a buyer, a major peeve I have are sellers who don't seem to understand that "new" means "new", and anything less than "new" no longer qualifys as being "new"!
