would you guys be interested?
« on: June 17, 2008, 01:25:34 PM »
I own a online auction house and I was talking to a guy at a swap meet last weekend and he has 1000's of old vintage japanese motorcycle parts. 1970 and up.. along with 100's of die cast cars and 1000's of vintage car parts.

Would you guys be interested in an online auction away from ebay on my web site. We would be able to ship your items via fed ex and USPS for international. We would be able to accept paypal and wire transfers for out of state transactions. I would hold a special auction for these motorcycle parts on my site tcbid.com
I could even offer a discount code for SOC forum members.

Not trying to spam I just though some of you may be interested.

Yes, anything you can do to help us keep these vintage bikes on the road would be great.  Sounds like a great find.  We can help you and you can help us.  Keep us informed...we like pictures... ;D

Wouldn't this likely pit member against member in the bidding? Seems contrary to the purpose of the eBay username cross-reference. ???

I don't care I just need parts!!!!! ;D
I think the thing I most like about motorcycling is the speed at which my brain must process information at to avoid the numb skulls who are eating pies, playing the ukulele, applying make-up etc in the comfort of their airconditioned armchairs as they make random attempts to kill me!!!!!!!

I never thought of that Bob...maybe if there was a buy it now option or similar that would help. Atleast then it would be more of a first come first served...

So, the strategy is to lie to people you are asking for help?

While we may end up bidding against each other, we all need parts.  Even on eBay, we probably bid against each other, unbeknown to us.
