Quick....Anyone Want in on this Ebay XMod Auction?

[foff667]

gimmi a minute to check my email...i asked him how many work.

[foff667]

ok didnt state how many work...said some are incomplete, $15 shipping flat rate dunno at this point...becoming less and less worth it to me.

[HardcoreZ28]

I'd go in for 2 cars at $50-$60 and try to sell one off or part out a broken one maybe?

[foff667]

did u email him back about how many work? if so how many? How many people are still interested? Im still down for $50 tops.

[HardcoreZ28]

Is that $15 for all 8 or for each one? I e-mailed him back to find out how many work...hopefully he'll get back to me.

[foff667]

for all so i dunno...does seem pretty low

[Tru2Chevy]

go to www.atomicmods.com The guys sells every stock part off of these cars, so you can rebuild the non-working ones for a good price. Me, Tim, and Bill also have some parts that could be donated or sold cheap to fix non-running cars.

thats the only reason im going in...like i said the worst that it could be is a toasted circuit board...hopefully its some minor **** but I guess we'll see. Personally im getting one for my wife and the other as a twisties car vs. the drag car i have now

[garretwp]

Any updates?

Garrett

[foff667]

i emailed him a little while ago havent heard back yet though about how many run.

[Mike]

im still down at 40ish bucks

[foff667]

still wanna find out how many work first...if 6 work i think hardcore & I are taking 4 of the 6 and you and garrett can have the other 2 at this point...if less then 6 work i think its pointless to buy them unless its some minor **** like a motor which in that case I'll give up a few extra $ and put my spare motors in them.

[ar0ck]

Still need someone?

[HardcoreZ28]

Still haven't heard back from him. I'm guessing we can probably make 6 work with parts from 2 donors right? I can go with just 1 if someone else wants 1.

45 minutes left only....I need to know by 3:30 who's in for about $25 a car plus parts from the donors.

[foff667]

Im a definite one way or the other...not sure if we need more people alex...are you sure you dont want me to make the bid with my auction stealer?

[HardcoreZ28]

I should be able to take care of it....how does that program work though...sounds cool

It uses fancy algorithms to place your bid at the last possible second, that way you don't get beat by someone trying to get in at the last second.

[foff667]

basiclly you put in your highest bid and it starts bidding with say 15 seconds less and can put in bids every 1/2 second till it wins the bid.

Yea, it's just a bit faster than eBay's 'Maximum Bid' function.

but its more like a backdoor cuz wont make a bid till theres 15 seconds left instead of making a bid with 2 mins left with a max bid and hope your first bid was over all the other peoples high bids and whatnot...makes bidding easier imo.

[foff667]

18 mins left...all i gotta say i syou better win this auction...but dont go over say $180-190 for all the cars...that would be about $25 per car which would leave people plenty of room if any small repairs needed to be made...i think between myself, you and mike weve got about $150 into the pot and the other 2 could either be used as parts cars if they dont run or sold to garrett or alex or whoever wants them for now....crosses fingers that 6 of 8 run.

[foff667]

ouch...up to nearly 180 i think it might be a bust

[foff667]

i say dont bother hardcore...its gonna be over $200 with shipping...and closing in on 30 per car and we still dont know how many run.

[HardcoreZ28]

Yeah forget it.

[foff667]

207+15 shipping final bid...$30 per car for 8 cars...and for all we know 2 could run...dont sweat it...ebay sux i found that out along time ago...look through the xmods stuff on there...you can get it cheaper strait through radioshack lol
