You are correct" BUSINESS IS BUSINESS" But I hope every one on this site remembers you in the future for having to pay more to buy from you then they most likely would have gotten it on ebay. I see why you had so much conflict at Teambaja! Just look at the items you sell on ebay and see how many no one bids on. Too Much!! Give the little guy a break! We all love our Baja's!

Business is business, and I can't blame anyone for trying to make a buck, but frankly, I find it both bad business and distasteful for someone in "business" to use a public forum to gloat about items that they outbid other users on.

Brian41....Did you get your inventory sorted out? Still looking for 98 and older dash panel for 20 Outlaw or know where it can be found? Thanks
Ask for Kevin Gunther. They have most of the patterns for late 90s Bajas, and can make most anything you want.

No dtails needed. What does being a paying menber of this forum have to do with it? I used to be a one "and will be again" but like I have said, I'm the little guy! Now I have to be careful where I direct my money so I can continue to own my Baja. Thats why the Ebay items were so inviting. But Resellers take that probabilty away.
You have all the right to do what you are doing, but when you look at the items "230 items listed, 21 items bid on??? Too much!!
Good Luck!

Brian, since you now have 200K in overstock inventory from Baja maybe you can let the rest of us win some of the ebay auctions! BTW, you haven't helped speed4u0 at all by listing personal names, discussing ebay disputes, etc. not sure that Speed4u0 wants you telling the world about their issues. That is unless YOU HAVE A VESTED INTEREST.....
You're quick to speak up for Speed4u0, but then admit and brag that it is YOU doing the run-up's on ebay. Sounds very fishy to me and many others.
Good luck selling parts to all your friends at a 40% markup. What a guy!

autlaw,
I would move this to a PM but since you are not a paying member here I do not have that option. You bid the low bid on every item SPEED4U offers and only win about 1 percent of the auctions you bid on so I can understand your pain. You won a shifter cable and sent me a message thanking me for letting you win and that you were only buying items for your boat not for resale BS do you have 50 different boats ? I brought the people dealing with Baja's sales to this site when the BS started and they had quit a chuckle about it. As far as a vested interest I have a large interest now over $300K with other things in the works that I can not mention on this forum.
If you are also looking to do what I am doing you are more than welcome as everybody is but do not quit your day job it takes a lot of time, investment and plan on sitting on your money for a long time.
Good luck in your bidding and if you need anything for your 50 boat fleet give me a call or email me at [email protected] as I am not looking for a fight on this forum or any other.Thanks Brian

sorry
No ,I am looking for the whole dash that is screwed in to the bulkhead my bulkhead is white my dash is black and when we put the fg fairing on had to mod the dash . So just wondering if you have any of the full dashes ,where the steering wheel comes out the throttles are attached I think you didn't under stand my last post, other wise the guy building the new full bulkheads that we are installing will build a custom dash for me . sorry no pics right now and I said sticks instead of throttles, didn't know if that threw you off
of the dash .

I am in the same town as Baja and I just go out and pick my stuff up from Marcy(speed4u) when I win. She's a great person to deal with.
She told me about eBay shutting her down for a bit. It seems she had a computer listed with the business account(speed4u) that she wanted to buy, no one else was bidding and she bid on it with her personal account. Which she admits was the first she heard you are not supposed to do that. Don't hold it against her a lot of times she's still learning the ebay stuff. Heck there's been a few times I've walked around with her and told her what some of that stuff is she is selling.
I try to stop out there every month just to see what she has laying around that she hasn't listed yet.
