FS: Rare Husco Armrest/Cupholder... MINT

[bimma360]

2 Year BUMP!! MAKE OFFERS, worst I say is no...

In mint condition!! Honestly, the only way this will be in better shape is if it was in pieces in its original packaging. The flash in the first two pictures make it look faded, but you can see in the third picture that this is not so. I can take some daytime pictures tomorrow if anyone is interested.

Price is $275 shipped firm.

That's quite a markup for something that cost 99 bucks brand new , granted it is NLA , but still thats a huge mark up . gl with the sale.

Yeah NLA is the reason. There was one on here about two weeks ago price was 200 + shipping... it sold before the guy could even post more then twice in his thread. People got all pissed at him b/c he didnt respond to like half the PMs. I've seen them sell on ebay for over 300... but then again i've seen some sell for less. I guess its a hit or miss, since no one is beating down my door for an extra 50 bucks.

That's not exactly the story...

The guy who sold his actually sold it after promising it to several people. I was one of them that was told to send him $200 and it was mine, only to get a PM a little while later telling me that it had sold.

At no point did he mention that it was first to send payment or whatnot, so people got pissed that he essentially had pending payment to several different individuals.

Yeah... that def does suck man. I was just trying to make a point at what these things are going for. Rumor had it that he didnt get back to people b/c he actually ended up selling it for something like 290 bucks. If that was true he probably got higher offers ya know. Either way it just further affirms my point. If you are still looking for one.. PM me.

PM sent.

The end of the story goes that he did sell for $290 to someone who wasn't in the original bidding but jumped in after he had already offered to several others at $225 (if I remember correctly).

I don't really have a problem with people making money, but he had pending payment with several people and then sold to someone else who said they'd beat any bidder by $50, so at that point I said $240 (and would have gone higher just to piss this new bidder off, but no internet at work), and so it sold for $290.

Some people are less than perfect on the internet it seems (and possibly in real life too...).

Anyway, good luck with the sale...

2 Year Bump!! I forgot I still had this... Still in the same great condition. I did notice a very slight little imperfection on the edge of the armrest part, which can be seen in the first pic (top right).

I was rummaging through my parts and was like oh yeah....

MAKE OFFERS, I know what my bottom line is... If its too low I'll just say no, no biggy.

It isn't NLA according to my dealer source-but he could be mistaken. But it's not exactly cheap. I have had a few of these come on 3 different cars of mine. I have never sold one for more then 150.00 in great working condition. "mint?" it would have to be in the packaging for it to be mint. worth 290? all depends on what one is willing to pay...lol

My girlfriend tried to buy one from the dealer for a x-mas present last year. They are still available, but cost around $400 after shipping IIRC. She ended up buying one off of Craigslist for $150 that is missing the right side that screws in to my center console. I still love it though. Good luck with sale!

Well, regardless of what the definition of mint is the pictures are there for the buyer to make up their mind. Ironically enough, in the first post I did say that the only way this would be better would be if it was still in the box.

Thanks man. Come get it guys.... half the price for a little smudge and no original packaging.
