Well, we know for sure he's not based in reality.

His ad says: "Don't "Best Price" me because these prices are already a reflection of the economy and it's hurting."
With those prices one would assume the economy is doing pretty well.

This notch is one of the nicest I've ever seen. The engine was engineered to work in the notch. Not just shoved in there. I would never do this but I'm not smart nor rich enough to do it properly. One of the highest detailed cars, worth the asking price in my opinion.

I've purchased hubs from this place. I believe they refurbish the hubs and they have plenty of them so it would be redundant to take numerous pictures of different hubs when they basically look the same.

Yes, this and and the fact that it has been running so long reads to me as someone who has a large quantity of this particular part.

Yet another photo-less grammar-less poorly structured ad...and X3 to boot. I wanted to vomit after attempting to read the first one.
