Thumbs up Lorinser & Amg Muffler Live Auction, 2 Days, Here!!!!

Hi All-
I posted the Lorinser & AMG Exhausts for sale a few days ago. I can't wait any longer for the offer I was hoping to get on them so here's what I'm going to do (baby due in 3 weeks)... I'm going to use the mbworld.org W203 forum as sort of an auction site. Don't worry its not going to be a 5 page thread! I am going to post the highest bids for either muffler so far as the starting points. No Reserve after that & I will pay the shipping to any of the lower 48 states!! I will allow people to either post their bid on the W203 forum, or just email their bid to me (preferred). Make sure you specify which exhaust your bid is for. I will respond and post the highest bids on the forum as updates in a timely manner (as soon as people email me). Whoever has the highest bid by Monday morning, the 19th, at 9am Pacific time, either posted or emailed to me wins the exhausts, no questions asked. This way everyone has a fair crack at it. Let's use this thread as the starting point. If you need a refresher, pictures of both can be seen @ benzworld.org W203 forum (only place I could post pics.) Remember email is preferred, especially since this forum has been down a lot lately. I will email the active bidder's with what's going on if the forum is down. Likewise, email me if you have any questions.
My email is mvischer@***.net.
Here goes... (These are actual bids by mbworld forum members, I didn't make them up, they know who they are.) Good Luck to All!! So far:

LORINSER EXHAUST- $550

AMG EXHAUST- $400

These are actual bids from mbworld forum members so you're basically questioning 4 different people's bids right now. Both mufflers are considered sold right now on those 2 high bids. The Lorinser muffler has received 3 offers prior to me posting them auction-style. The AMG had received 2 until someone backed out "because they read the AMG Muffler Sucks" post. True comment... Your criticism is fine but I don't think you're going to find a quality Mercedes performance muffler for under $300. Even the polished clamp-on tips are $130 or more on ebay if I'm not mistaken. There's always the $49 "Remus-style" universal if you're interested. Do you remember bidding $500 for the Lorinser muffler a few days ago? Its only @ $550 right now .

Don't let him get to you. If you do a search you will find that he was trying to sell a shiftknob at one time for approx $280.

Good luck with your auction.

Alright Here's the Deal...

Alright Here's the Deal... I received several offers for both exhausts at the very end. Yet nobody seems to be serious after making their offers. I have told the 2 highest bidder's that they won and I have received no communication from either of them for 3 days. I had 2 people offer $550 for the Lorinser and 3 people offer $350-$360 for the AMG. I just sent a few emails to the people I know were interested, requesting a decision from them. My baby is due in a couple of weeks and I need the money. If you are serious about making an offer and have the money right now, please contact me as soon as possible. If you have an offer anywhere near those figures please let me know.
Thanks-
Mike
