More stupidity from Ebay air filter $999
Ok, this is really crazy. This is your everyday AC Delco filter - not the original square chicken wire ones. I guess he hopes to snag an incredibly stupid whale at that price.
I have 5 of these filters, so I offered to sell him my filters at half his asking price....

I come from the other side of the street and wood rather not screw my fellow man over. I'm not saying sell for under fare market value but to screw someone that makes you a douche and worse than the person that over paid.

Or maybe more specific to you Mark, an nos post rear 1/4. Sounds like a deal to me if you can buy an nos rear 1/4 for the same cost as an air filter ! So I guess top dollar is all relative.

It's "Nobody ever lost a dollar by underestimating the taste of the American public."
Apparently, it may actually be a quote by the great HL Mencken, but, as I say, I can't find a definitive source.

I'm sorry that I can't find an unambiguous source for this, but I'm surprised that, as an Englishman, you didn't get the quote right.
It's "Nobody ever lost a dollar by underestimating the taste of the American public."

I was just saying that the "... overfed, oversexed, and over here" (hope I don't have to give a history for that description of us Yanks) Brits don't usually miss a chance to bust the chops of their former subjects, and you completely left out the part about "the American public."
