Anyone interested in OEM COMFORT BOX, P/N A21268000109051, for $200 shipped?

I have two available, both off 2014 CSL550s with a few hundred miles on each car. Both Comfort Boxes were never in use and are in like new condition.

$200 each shipped within continental US.

They fit all W212 2010-2014 sedans without B/O sound system (code 811, probably over 99% of these cars do not have this $6K option, hence they'll fit basically all sedans).

Why get rid of them? I'm thinking about adding them to my E350 (if they're the same model number) but I'm also concerned that they might make it difficult to put large suitcases and golf clubs easliy into the trunk.

Your thoughts?

And second, the local dealer has them for less ...

That's exactly why. On a brighter side, it takes 10 seconds to take them off and 10 seconds to put them back on. But I have no use for them, hence I'm selling them.

Really? My local dealer has them at $290...plus tax.

And lastly FYI, with shipping costs (its bulky item) plus PayPal fees, will leave only between $150 and $180 (depending on your location) for me and I did pay $290 for each as they were factory installed "options" on both cars.

I fixed the PM issue.

As far as dropping the price...I've been here for a long time and sold a number of products. I start with the lowest possible price that I will accept. I do not play "price" games, unlike most. Of course, if you want to buy it for less, you can always visit your local dealer, right? BTW, does that "local" dealer have an address on this Earth since I do not know of a single dealer (and I know many) who would sell it for less?... Just kidding of course (about the address).

It takes 10 seconds (or less). Turn two levels - one on each front side, then pull down and out. Reverse procedure to install back in.

Don't you have to remove that bag hook before installing this? I don't know if everyone here has the hook but I do. I don't see the hook in the pictures and if the hook is not there it probably is easy as you say but if the hook is in place and must be removed for the comfort box then the time will be a bit longer but I think still just few minutes.

I was thinking about getting this box but I don't see how it could hold nearly as much grocery bags as the hook can and my trunk often has 10 or more bags hanging on the hook, which is one of the best and simplest trunk organizers there is.

I had the comfort box for a year before I figured out we had a grocery hook.. I took out the comfort box and use the hook instead. It is sitting in my pantry now. The box is great for random/loose items though. Super easy to install as you slide it into the holes and twist two ****. So if you have the bigger luggage you can easily take it off.

1. 2014 cars no longer have hooks as standard equipment. This free part (with replacement MSRP of under $20) was replaced by a $290 Comfort Box ("standard" for 2014) option.

2. As stated above, hook (standard on 2012 and earlier cars, do not know about 2013) is not interfering with Comfort box's removal/installation.

The first time I saw the "comfort box" listed as an option, I thought it was some sort of Mercedes branded porta-potty or something.

Regards,
Don

What hook are you guys talking about? Is it present in every E class...? Can someone post a photo of the "hook". Thanks.
