A pair of bumper fangs off the bumper of a burb that was in a warehouse for 30 yrs under a mechanics lien. Great driver quality. One stud was fixed. The backside had very light surface rust so I hit it with some black rust converter. Asking $100 + ship for the set - what I paid for them 3 yrs ago.

Also have a couple of really nice front bumpers for cheap if anyone's interested.

Dang, that's a good deal...

It cost me more than that to get a pair re-chromed

I'm not on Farcebook (marketplace) but my friend is. Going to list everything there shortly. For what stuff is going for on feebay, I might go there too.

At one time I was VERY active there. Then the fees (even on shipping - WTF?) and sales tax. Now, if over $600 in sales, they issue 1099's. I'm not a business, so fk em. That ended all of my selling activity.

On another note.....when they began charging fees on shipping, they called random sellers to ask them what they thought (like they care). Yours truly got the call. I told the girl that they just ended all international sales for me. I laid out how a $35 radio (with shipping) to Europe would incur about $18 in fees on a $35 sale.....which isn't happening. The wokie-quota (right on cue) disagreed, read some pre-printed BS and that was it.

I too used to buy and sell on ebay. Very actively actually. Then it became less and less geared towards the little guy. The sh¡t hit the fan 10-15 years ago and they no longer get my money.

In other words, I say screw ebay, lol. You've got a fair price on them, they will sell.

Cant say personally if it was factory, but my '79 has them. The rubber needs attention, but the truck is 44 this year. Its 'Magnum' year.

So there is that. The ones we are all referring to here are absolutely gorgeous.

Yea, that marketplace is saturated with Chinese cheap crap which they can somehow offer free or next to free shipping so they essentially squeeze the lil sellers out. eBay only cares about volume and their bottom line. I definitely am not a fan of this business model. It use to be a fun and exciting auction site trying to win the item in the final seconds, similar to a real auction. Now it’s just a boring Amazon store business model.

Just for comparison purposes...

I recently paid $286.99 before tax, free shipping for these parts. It was worth it to me but it should show just how great the price was on these. @Doppleganger offered one heck of a great deal.
