JSS on eBay
 
From the genius that sold the NOS '86 SSP caps for $250 each after finding them for $2 a piece (and unknowingly bragging to Jim Y. about it).

You don't think he was just some "big shot genius wannabe" who did that (bragged) to feel important?

I made the mistake of helping him find some centercaps that were "the last thing I need for my car, that I am going to keep forever" blah blah yappity yap. He buys 4 caps for less than 4 bucks each, then a week later tries to sell them for 250.00 each.

he is famous though..... because of him the term Greedy Gouger Guy (GGG) was officially adopted for deceptive partsthugs like him.

He is nothing but a parts/car flipper that uses ebay as a side job. Naturally he is not welcome here.

In regards to this JSS box currently for sale there is some information you ought to know........

A member here actually sold this JSS box to someone and then bought it back early last year. The owner (then) never sent it back,(even though it was paid for) and after months of not sending it, SUDDENLY IT WAS LOST. So the money was refunded (after months) and then SUDDENLY IT WAS FOUND AGAIN. Incredibly the guy that had the JSS contacted the member here he screwed over and wanted an appraisal of the part done. People have alot of nerve right??

Then mysteriously it ends up in an ebay auction with our long lost halfwit GGG as the seller.

I would say I am suprised but anymore.....nothing suprises me.

Like I said I wouldn't buy anything from this guy even if it was the last piece that I needed for my car. I rather do without. I can't stand greedy people.

WOW...that's quite a story. All kinds of people I'm afraid but at least you know what this person is all about now. It's the ones that haven't tipped their hand yet you have to worry about. :takenotes:

Maybe he could buy the one on eBay for you?

It's like the old saying goes....only takes one to ruin it for the rest of us.

I found those JSS boxes after being contacted by a member here (Bud), who was nice enough to let me know about an outfitter he had found that had one. The guy ended up having several, and I bought every single one he had. I didn't do it to flip them....and I did get them to several members here who needed them. One went to eBay after everyone here was taken care of (went for $50 or so to Bob Egleston from ORG, which was fine by me).

Same goes for the CHP radio gear and CC1s that I located. Members here who got them got a great deal on actual CHP radios, heads, CC1s, and amps. The only setup I sold for a profit was to a dealer/enthusiast, and that was after I made sure that everyone here who needed them was taken care of first.

I will continue to look for parts like these, and to try to help those that need them, but it's odd that I find myself buying things that I don't need in order to keep those who have other motivations from getting their hands on them. It's also odd that I have to be careful in determining who "needs" something, because we have "some" people in this hobby who are only looking for that super-rare, hard-to-find part just to put on a car to sell the week after getting it. Buy, sell, buy, sell, buy, sell.

Some of these parts take years to find. I can't control the prices people are willing to pay on eBay, but I can control who gets the ones I've found. My .02c.

No, none of them had them. The switches on eBay, as quoted and linked to elsewhere, aren't the correct ones. I hope someone doesn't buy them thinking they will be correct. You can find the split rockers for the alleys all over, but not the switches for the overheads.
