haha, no it wasnt me. I reckon he is sick of just relisting it and its a pretty normal business practice to change things out by upping the price, but yeah 2.5x the original asking is weird.
To be honest I found him quite inflexible and somewhat curt when I spoke to him, but YMMV so start sending him $50 offers

Your Mileage May Vary.... Ie give something a go as you may well get a different outcome than me.

OK boys, who's up for a series of silly offers for that LC frame? I'm sick of seeing the thing festering on ebay!

I was after an RZ frame but I could be convinced to take this one off your hands for $50.

LOL, I wish...
I like the idea of moving the decimal point too funny.

Here's a nice set of cheap instrument to compliment the chassis for a cheap rebuild.

I've used them before for jets I think.
But most times I ask them for prices, I pull a muscle in my eyelids from the shock.
