Yahoo Auction Japan. Legit?

So I was searching Yahoo Auctions (Japan) and found all sorts of goodies. Even perhaps have my moms friend who lives in Japan right now order me the parts and then ship it over here since most of the sellers aren't willing to ship internationally. Here are some parts I've found. Anyways, is it just me or does Japan just have some of the rarest W124 parts in the planet? I envy them.

AMG Steering wheel?

AMG GenI Front Bumper
http://page7.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/g32992684

AMG GenII Body kit
http://page5.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/e45498089
http://page6.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/f33887263

AMG 3-Piece wheels
http://page6.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/f36276261
http://page2.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/b57499279

AMG Carpet?
http://page6.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/f34003178

Misc Items
http://page4.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/d45820293
http://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/77428046

Here are things I'm really interested in. Can anyone confirm?

AMG Door Stills (Seems legit since even one has the picture of the box with part #!)
http://page10.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/m13895064
http://page8.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/h25994872
http://page7.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/g34653503

AMG Exhaust
http://page11.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/n8457177
http://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/69221966

AMG Strut Bar
http://page2.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/b57272365

if not does any one know where I can get a Wiechers Sport Aluminum Front Strut-Tower Brace?

OMG!!! AMG Hammer Wheels.
http://page9.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/k19590831

if they weren't so banged up there might be a deal! Does anyone know if that could be fixed?

Anyways, that's it for me. You don't know how many countless AMG Built W124's I saw for sale. Damn Japanese.

OMG! Thanks for the link. I'll watch this until the last day and see how much they go for. 250 right now and no bids seems really good.

EDIT: Emailed seller.

in there he said that offer 300 dollars and he will sell them... seems very low.. even if he is moving out. 300 for "the most sought out wheels if the 80's and 90's?" hmm... i'd make sure has them. don't want one our fellow one 2 four members being ripped off...

i like the amg exhaust for $639

chris the wheels are $139 and yes they can be fixed at truewheel in north hollywood for 100 a wheel.

the hammer wheels in slo are 300 if u BUY it now read the add. i would buy it NOW if i were u and drive to slo to pick them up to save shipping.

i want an amg door sill like that but those are for a 4 door not a 2 door. i wonder if that guy has coupe ones and what they run?

chris did u see a ducktail on any of those sites??? i still need one before i gone down and have the car painted. getting the expanded metal, marker lights, chrome door panel inserts, and left hand drive mirror today. so all i need is the ducktail for a reasonable price.

Eric,

Yeah, thats the reason why I emailed him about selling them now for 300. Maybe I can make a deal with him and get him to sale them for 350 shipped. That's a drive to pick them up thought. about 4 hours. We'll have to see.

I want to AMG doory stills as well. Since one of the links has the box and part number, maybe you can contact MB and see if they can order them for you.

I didn't see any ducktails but I'll keep a look out next time.

Too late, someone got to him faster than I did and bought the wheels from him.

He said he's going to post another but this time there will be no buy now option and it'll be a free for all. I'd hate to see how much those go for.

Still though, I'm pretty pissed off...he didn't reply to any of my messages and tell me whats up.

My hunt for AMG Hammer's continues.

Edit: Nevermind, he contacted me and said he has another set. He said he'll send me pictures tonight and discuss the price with me. Wish me luck!
