Shorter Z1 - KZ clutch cable
14 Mar 2014 19:14
Anyone want a shorter Z1 KZ900 clutch cable?
Does not anyone look at ebay? I could not even sell 2 of them 1 new for $14.00 ????
Someone explain why no one buys my parts from the ebay??
2 45" clutch cables for $14.00.
Then I tried to sell 4 stock clutch cables also for $20.00??
I lost it the last time no one bought something, I cut a Goodyear quality inner tube into pieces, cause no one bought it for 10 bucks to your door?
Is this the low end of the economy scale? No one has any money?
Don't mean to whine, but WTF?
The shitz going into the garbage cut up in pieces soon.

I sell a few things on fleabay that I wont mention it goes in spurts I will sell 4 sets in 1 day and then none for a month.
I spent a lot of time changing prices and making deals but that didn't make any difference so I lust run them for a while and then leave it be for a few weeks then run them again.
but on the flip side I saw a new headlight bucket kit for 38.00 or 39.00 bucks stated it was new just didn't use it
I emailed him with a slightly lower offer he declined. I can buy the same one from an established biz for 10.00 bucks more I will buy from the company because I do business with them.
but I'm always up for a deal on maintenance stuff.
