Default More Ebay Insanity

I admit I have done some crazy stuff regarding what I paid for hard-to-find and rare GMC accessory items on Ebay, but I can at least say I have never took a beating as bad as the winner of this auction just did - check it out. He obviously wanted a right side door mirror real real real real real real real real bad

Ebay Auction item 221400584320

I own an exact same NOS 1960 right hand door mirror and arm for my 1960 GMC Suburban, but I paid more like 40.00 or something more normal for mine.....I mean, we're talking about a door mirror right? I realize the 1960 short arms and 1961 long mirror arms are not reproduced, and neither are the off-set correct mirrors, but geez....this type of auction is what hurts us all where NOS parts buying is concerned - once sellers see something going for a certain amount, then that is what it becomes "worth" because that is just what worth is - what somebody is willing to pay. I couldn't sleep so I decided to post a rant instead looks like
