Official Junk, Overpriced, etc. Thread

The LED headliner light has been removed by eBay. Guess enough people turned him in to get it canceled. I don't usually get involved with stuff like this, but I went ahead and sent eBay a headsup about the auction, since his boasting was too blatant and obnoxious. I know of two other complaints that were also sent. Anybody from here send one also?
 
Possibly. It sure appears to be a Fastraxx but it could be a Tomar 930 without the endcaps. Guess we'll have to speculate since the pic won't enlarge.
 
Seller states that this siren puts out about 300 decibels at full volume. Hearing tissue dies at about 180 decibels, and this siren is one trillion times louder than that. Asking just $30 in San Diego, CA

200+ dB can kill you just due to the sound waves created by something that loud, causing massive internal injury. Somebody must be smoking some good stuff to put that "300 dB" in to get that POC sold.... :|
 
The controller looks like it came off a Fisher Price toy... :roll:

No joke here, he REALLY wants $500 for this 12X (and the pass. side doesn't even have the upper mirror assembly):

The guy thinks he's sitting on a pile of gold, so he tries to make this $75-$100 TS as one......... :| .

I've got him talked down to $125 already, cash and local pickup. I just dropped the bomb on him and let him know that a mirror half is missing.


The problem is that I am nowhere near local to this guy, and I don't intend to buy it. Is there anybody that wants this 12X who is nearby? I could make the switch and let him know your phone number.


EDIT: seller claims the endcaps say Model 12, not Model 12X. He said his uncle may have swapped mirrors at some point.
 
Joker trying to rip people off on Plexus saying it is not available in stores and selling a 13oz can for $26 plus $8 shipping. I can buy that stuff at just about any local motorcycle store, the local Honda dealer has them always in stock. Plus many places on the Internet like JC Whitney for like $15, or even less at other places. I prefer Novas and would never used Plexus, but what a jerk trying to rip people off just because FedSig discontinued selling the stuff, then calming it can not be bough in stores when I can.

Here is a link to my local Honda dealer, they have a large selection of Plexus.

Just this week I bought a new Magellan GPS unit on e-bay. It shipped quickly from Illinois, arrived in two days, and after I charged it for a few minutes it fired up and looked great. So I left it on the charger and went to bed last night.


This morning I go outside with it and sit there for FIFTEEN minutes while it tries to acquire a signal, without success. My 5 year old Garmin and my Blackberry both linked up with multiple satellites in under 2 minutes, so the location is not the problem.


So I thought maybe I needed to activate it or something. I go to Magellan's website, make sure I've got the latest software, etc, and as a last resort decide to back it up before trying a complete reset. As I'm sitting here watching the little bar go across as the files copy, I think I see the words "blow job" in a file name. So I cancel the backup and do a file search on the GPS unit for those words. LO AND BEHOLD, there's a three minute and fifteen second "Chloe Jones Blow Job" video stored on it!


I'm all for free porn, but not on a supposedly new GPS that doesn't work for shyt! I e-mailed the seller, gave him til monday to respond and make it right. This is ridiculous. Learned my lesson - gonna get my money back & go to a brick and mortar store after this.

So while she's doing him, did the voice keep saying "your route is being recalculated...."?

Yeah that thing has been up there for a long time; for over a year I'm sure.

Best part of the post?

At least they are honest......
 
That power supply has not only been extensively used, but it even has part of a Whelen factory repair tag on it! The black spots under the mounting holes are another dead giveaway that it was mounted at some point. I PMed the seller to tell him about this and I also reported it to eBay, since this is a blatant misrepresentation. Some of y'all need to report it too......


UPDATE: The seller emailed me and said the description was a mistake....duh. He thanked me for calling it to his attention and he has corrected it. Funny thing though, everything else he is selling is supposed to be NOS too.
