O.K. Pat ,SIT DOWN!!!!!!!
I had the same brilliant idea, I bought 5 sets of fog light grills on E-Bay in the
30.00 to $40.00 range. A friend 914 parts guy in Mich told me he had a set
recromed for $40.00, so I thought if i had $70.00 to $80.00 in them i could
probably get $150.00 a set for them . Pelican and Automotion get about $115.00
each side. So $150.00 a is a better deal than $230.00 ,RIGHT???? And the
chrome job is twice as good as O.E.
I sent the 5 sets to C.V. Platers In British Columbia to be done, 1 set was to far
gone to be done,so i said" Go ahead with the rest" They even told me the final
cost. ( here comes the biggest BRAIN Fart of my life).
Total for 4 sets, oh just a little over $600.00 for the 4 sets.YEA that,s right I ok
'ede that price . So 4 sets rechromed ,cost $600.00,+ $140.00= $740.00=
$185.00 per set,throw in $10.00 each shipping I spent. Now I have 3 sets for sale
at $200.00 a set. Any one intertrested????????
Why I'll make so much Fu---n money on this I,ll be able to retire to the French
Riveria. I will admit the job they do is outstanding,better chrome than O.E
But the market for somthing that costs $30.00 less than O.E. is not going to
be very big at all. And so ends this Tale of woe !!!!!!!!
Sheepishly, Dave the bargain man
