Terry Bond Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Did anyone notice the Model A wheel on ebay for $2500? I first saw mention of it in a posting on the Model T Ford club forum. Item number is 151400305051. At that price, for four wheels and a spare you could get a whole car thrown in the deal. This is almost as bad as the tire pump I saw recently for $1400. Quite entertaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCHinson Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 http://www.ebay.com/itm/151400305051?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_from%3DR40%26_sacat%3D0%26_nkw%3D151400305051%26_rdc%3D1 I am thinking that is one heck of a typo. Hopefully he meant $25.00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Bond Posted August 30, 2015 Author Share Posted August 30, 2015 Nope, according to some of the posts on the T forum, he has been contacted and asked about the price and he claims to have already sold three of them at that price! If he wants to go in the business I've got some already painted, and he coud make a fortune at Hershey by buying up all the wheels! Amazing.

MCHinson Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 That is crazy but maybe P.T. Barnum was right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCHinson Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I think someone has a sense of humor. Looking at many pages of his ebay feedback, it looks like he has not sold anything for over $200 in the last 6 months or so. Most of his items have sold between $10 and $50.

Rusty_OToole Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 (edited) Maybe he traded for 2 $1250 hubcaps. Edited August 30, 2015 by Rusty_OToole (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCHinson Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Although this wheel is for a 30/31, I think I may have found a 1929 Model A that was restored with parts from the same price range. http://wilmington.craigslist.org/cto/5198230368.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1937hd45 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 He had 9,141 items listed on eBay when I checked. Typo or good joke doesn't bother me. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also says "No brookers" what are they, trout? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
