Found this "bargain" on ebay

[speadfreak]

I found this on ebay and almost bid on it until I used the shipping calculator that is provided by the seller. It gave me a quote of over $545 for a 7 - 10 delivery. I guess that's why nobody is bidding. I emailed the seller asking what is up with the shipping prices..................................still waiting for response.

567 bucks to ship to my door? WTF!

 

[speadfreak]

I know a crank is a hard item to ship and it is supposed to be kept upright, but COME ON! Really sux though.....I'd at least like to have the rods.

lol someone in PA needs to do the calc and see what it says.. 400 bucks to ship it the town over from em

 

[woodyy24]

548.36

 

[iwashmycar]

527 for one state over! wtf

Yeah that's messed up. either the calculator is screwed or he's trying to pad his profits by overstating weight. You can get a freakin T-5 delivered for 75 bucks and this just a crank and some rods.

$358.22 for delivery in 5-10 days in the same town he's shipping from. I wonder if crack he's smoking comes with it. I shipped T-5 last year from NJ to CA for less than 100 bucks.

[sheff2720]

this guy lives an hour away from me (30 miles) and its $386.67

That stuff is basicly scrap in any motor other than a 9.2 Cleveland.

The SVO stuff is all Cleveland main,SBC rod journal and will not fit the 351W block (351W has 3" main compared to a Cleveland with a 2.749" main).And the odd stroke suggest a used NASCAR crank.The Pistons are for Cleveland sytle canted valve heads,most likely Yates.

Oh,and the shipping said $720.05...
