Step-a-toe Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 What happens to those that appear here and FB saying they need an oil pump for EA81? Do they give up and bury their EA81 ? EJ convert club? I found a few more in my hoard down here in Australia. Wondering what they are worth used and what it costs to send a one kilo package to the US Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 pick a price that's worth your time and list it here, or on ebay. if no one wants it at that price then you won't be wasting time. Also, I keep an eye out for people i know/respect/long time members - and give them a good deal if i see them asking. I sent a box of hard to find old gen parts to a board member free this summer. otherwise i expect a price that reflect availability and my time which at this point isn't very available. EA81 pumps do seem to have an exceptional demand considering it's often for Brats. That is a distinctive part and vehicle. In general, many are looking for 20 year ago pocket change prices for stuff that's hard to find. I think it's more often "hard to find cheap", rather than "hard to find". I've got frequently asked for parts, i just don't believe they're hard enough to find to make it worth my time to "sell" them in the conventional sense. You have to deal with international shipping - put a price tag on them and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Step-a-toe Posted October 6, 2020 Author Share Posted October 6, 2020 I think you put your finger on it, Ido Many are and have to be budget conscious, others find thrifty a challenge. I used to send stuff about the country from time to time to others I got to know even paying the postage just to streamline it. It has never happened in the reverse though mind you Elf_reddo has offered his skills more than once in the true old fashioned club spirit. To the US postage is a killer on our standard postal system but I am gonna try a dummy quote on a one kilo package via freighter I use , and actually have used to send a 14*14*30" toolbox 72 kg to North Dakota three years ago A$440. Just heaps of detailed photos, maybe feeler gauge check.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
