Default Wow $70 for a GM Pilot Bushing...Buyer R U Nuts??

Some have more money than brains, that being said, could not help but share this!!! Come on now who is gonna know what box your pilot bearing came from??? Really!!!!! This is over the edge.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/130658887108...84.m1423.l2649

An identical part is available under the "HELP" label for under $10.

What's up with paying $70 for this???? Am I missing something here??

Wait, maybe some 1970's air comes in the box. "Breath Deep The Gathering Gloom"

Wow.

A good Lakewood cost about 40 and worth it.

Would not recommend using those cheapies unless you want to chance the car not going into gear loud squealing issues etc.
Hit and miss on them.
Get what you pay for!

You can also get a National brand PB656HD at any parts store. They are non-magnetic and less than $5.

There are collectors that set odd goals for themselves. Like having all the parts for a 67 small block in their original boxes. In the electronics hobby you have unbuilt Heathkit's that drop 75% of their value if built.
