    Hey guys; this e-bay thing is pretty cool!(y) I got an original owners manual Friday ,N.O.S., never used for $7.01 and today I scored a Maverick grill with lights for $20.50 !:clap: . I hope when they arrive this week they are as good as they said they are. Thanks for the tip..... never fooled with e-bay before, now I'm hooked!

    Just be picky, check each sellers feekback history for negatives and their total sales. Otherwise, good luck!

    caution: beware of some folks proud 'shipping and handling' fees in their small print.

    Yeah,shipping on the grill was more than what I paid for it, but I'm a trucker and I know freight ain't cheap, especially Buster Brown [ UPS], I always check feedback and ratings, if it sounds to good to be true, it probally is not . I set my price and if I couldn't get it for that, I quit. Now if I could only do that when I'm looking at a prospective project car, I'd be better off!!! Wife says I got too many toys now anyway, but when was she right anyhoo? lol Anybody need a 48 Ford coupe? Or a 73 VW? How about a 83 T-Bird? See where this is going? I need to have a yard sale, or is that a garage sale?:confused: Please send funds, I'll send you some nice projects.:clap:

    I thought they were called Ginger Bread men??:D

    E-Bay can be fun, but watch yourself, it's easy to end up paying more than what a piece is worth just to win. Have fun

    Dan Hines, do you have anything to add, I'm sure you have heard all the cleaver names for UPS drivers.
