If we all know what they're worth, why ask for offers? Why not just "The going price", or "the going price, less 10%" (or plus 10%)?

Fact is, very few of us know what they're worth.

Hi Matt, I only have the engine covers left now the radiator ones have gone
. the combined width of the three engine cover is 6 feet or for the metric
minded 180mm ,I could be wrong but I thought that the radiator ones were not as wide as the engine ones. not that it matters really,I will check my old photos of the matildas that I once owned, I bought six of them one Saturday morning off three different cattle stations complete and running, I did post some pics of them a few years back,and as for the cost, I have bought carriers straight from the disposal sales for 3 hundred dollars complete and running many years ago, so if anyone has any tanks or carriers in running condition please give me first refusial at those 1970 prices, it matters not what we paid for them way back then its what they are worth now, I hope no one takes offence at what I have said its not directed at any one person just stating the fact that its supply and demand, happy hunting guys regards Ron
