A few missing parts but this looks like a pretty good deal.

If the metal is solid and it's not hack job, it is a good deal.....

The bracket may be bent, but it may be a Ghia headlight switch as well, their bracket is different.
And why does he call it a split bug switch???

| It looks like those Ebay ads that list every german car that ever used a slightly similar part in the title. They waste my time, and are always over priced. |

Funny. Some of the stuff he bought from me some weeks ago.
For a fraction of his price. He is a bit optimistic. But that`s "market".
He just needs to find a single one who pays that much.

oh yea ebay stuff. Thats where I bought the stuff that I keep in a box for my great grand kids. It might actually be worth what I paid for it by the time they graduate.

I'm sorry but its the 399.00 torn-up.. damaged, paint missing screwdriver that takes the cake. I have 4 or 5 of these including the original with my 16" round tool box....and I don't value them anywhere near 399.00!!
http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=1318286
and I'm sorry this isn't the "market". This is beyond a stupid price for many of these items. Plus the title spamming is damn annoying. I wonder if every European HAS to use Split, Oval, KDF on every one of their ads on USA Ebay?

I am sure it's a misplaced decimal and he meant $3.99

OMG, yes, we have a new winner. The crack must be especially good and cheap out there in Deister. The $400 screwdriver.

yeah but you are paying extra for the pliers marks on the narrow part.

I don't trust anyone who is selling car parts that has hands like an investment banker.. They're so soft and moisturized.
