The NOS glove box pull used to go for $100, but there's one for $60 shipped in the classifieds now that hasn't sold..
What engine is the Empi oil pump cover for, and the DDS motor mount kit? _________________ Insta: @kaiscollectionvt

sent you a couple emails. I saw your ads after I sent the first one, sorry for that. I wold be willing to go $100 for each shock, $200 for the pair, and maybe go $100 on the dds mounts...... I have never paid more than $75-$100 for an og empi shock, and feel that is a fair offer. the dds mounts would be great on a car I am building too, but these offers are far less than your asking on the classifieds for these parts...... _________________ If the RV Hut is a rockin, don't come a knockn'

the prices on nos empi parts, and or blister packs have come way down..... I have paid $75-$100 for a new old stock empi shock at the vw classic, and you can see most parts, unless they are super rare, have come down a bit in price... I am sitting on a shiat load myself, but will have to wait till the next hay day, for big C's payday!!! _________________ If the RV Hut is a rockin, don't come a knockn'

Yes, we'll probably see these parts up for sale for a looooooong time, if he's keeping his prices at this level.. _________________ Insta: @kaiscollectionvt

we have chatted a bit and I think he was misinformed on the actual value of the parts he has. Someone might of told him what some of the parts had made $$$$ wise in the peak of the Empi Glory Hole! I think those days are over unless the part is super rare. even GT wheels have come down hundreds of dollars..... _________________ If the RV Hut is a rockin, don't come a knockn'

I told him in a PM that he shouldnt go less than 350 for his empi radio
and I told him that the EMPI hayday is long gone, 6 or so years ago he would have gotten these prices. Like the stock market/ housing market everything was prices high and hte bubble finally burst _________________ Thornton |

supply and demand.
for some reason the trend got really popular fast, wasnt enough around and lots of demand. once the demand has been met the prices go way down _________________ Thornton |

Actually, Thornton single handedly killed the market by flooding it with NOS parts. jerk. Thanks for making my collection worth fifty bucks. _________________ Scott R.
