This %$&#$ "Parts and Supplies" (stupid name) sells the crustiest, nastiest parts and ALWAYS for sometimes 2-3 times what they can be bought brand new for. I'm sick of seeing his crooked ass in my search results, I have no idea who he fools with this garbage. Clutch cover bolts for $40? check. Used timing belts for $100? yep. I  sent him hate mail and got blocked, haha.

I suppose I should just ignore him, or some of you will just say he's just trying to get a nut, but I say he's a border line thief. And his over priced parts are always SCABBY as fuq.

There are always people out there trusting the more expensive shop... "since they're confident enough to charge more, they must know their stuff". Plus all those who believe ebay is the only source for parts.

Annoying as hell, but if it's possible to sell at those prices - why not  [roll]

$69 for one VERY used foot peg  [laugh] Just about twice as much as a new one.

I mock his name in a ridiculous sounding voice out loud whenever his auctions come up. It's possible I spend too much time browsing parts on flea bay ..

$88 for the small timing side cover.... I don't think that includes a new O-ring and stainless bolts...
He's not shy.

The right thing is to name and shame (he has none) and move on. You did our community a good service, especially for newbies.

This could be a 200+ page "Craigslist crackheads" page, for the amount of material this joker provides.

I'm surprised he didn't part out the timing cover o ring separately for like $27, lol.

My favorite part is: "we are a ********* home based business".  Censored to comply with board policy ; P

I bought my used engine off ebay for a very reasonable price, but the same guy who sold it to me charges 3-4 times the price for every other part he sells. When I picked up my engine all the good shit was gone (my fault for not checking) so that he could attempt to fool someone into thinking it was worth it.

Some guys are ridiculous with their prices and make the beast with two backs everyone looking for decent used parts over.

I'm sure we have the same sellers in mind Buck, seeing as how we both cruise ebay for ducati parts.
M620 turned M800 but then back to M620 after the M800 died at 110k, and now to Multi 1000.

There's pretty much the same gang of "usual suspects"... none of them are always reasonable but some are worse than others. There's a couple on the west coast that have "best offer" options but they counter everything until you're $2 away from the original price and it's like, make the beast with two backs off for wasting my time.

If only you could leave negative feedback without having to purchase from them  [evil]

This dude's crusty nasty parts are only worth what some dick will pay for them.

If he gets stupid money for obvious crap.... more fool the buyer.

Relax.  Take a breath.  Count to 1000.

The world is full of people willing to take advantage of fools.

Good idea! a warning to others about how comparatively outrageous his prices are.

I can't help it, this guy downright offends me.

Thanks for the heads up! I was looking at those parts from the M750, were they dug up from a compost pile? [laugh] I would be embarassed to sell anything in that condition. I have noticed used Ducati parts are priced a bit high overall compared to the used stuff i have picked up for my Triumph. I am still a novice at Ducati ownership and have found a lot of helpful information on this forum.

Glad I could help! Ducati parts def tend to be more expensive across the board on average, but there's still no need to get hosed. There are actually more things than one might realize that are better off bought new from the dealer (Commoto is my personal favorite) like special hardware, bracketry, a lot of the plastic trim pieces etc. I bought a new splash guard for $20 and a new seat lock assembly for around that price too, the ebay mob charges more for that stuff and you're getting cracked up snotty garbage. So it's never a bad idea to pull up the parts fiche and check the numbers for what you need first.
