vbrad511 Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 Somebody got to talking about replacement radiators again recently so I looked them up on Ebay. I messaged them about the ridiculous price and they responded back that they're out of stock and they bumped the price to keep folks from bidding/buying. Said the price will go back down when they restock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheesey Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 I think they did this with their intercoolers as well but they must be back in stock cause it just went back down to 250 it was at 700 or something crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techboy Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 I've seen other eBay companies do this before too. I don't understand it. Isn't it just as much effort to remove the ad as it is to bump the price?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcristquester Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 Anyone buy and install this radiator yet? 100 percent bolt on, no mods? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G54Bstore Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 There's other companies making the same radiator. Why are we so stuck on using that one company? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ucw458 Posted January 9, 2015 Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 I've seen other eBay companies do this before too. I don't understand it. Isn't it just as much effort to remove the ad as it is to bump the price?? It's easier and cheaper to edit the price than to end the auction. The non timed listings are pay by the month. So if you run out of stock 1 week in and end the auction you lose the other 3 weeks you paid for. Raising the price prevents people from buying then leaving negative feedback for long shipping times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasQuest Posted January 9, 2015 Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 (edited) I was literally about to buy one to try it out and the next day they shot the price up. No way I'm spending that on a try-out radiator... If it goes back down where it was before I'll get it.

pcristquester Posted January 9, 2015 Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 The Mookee is less $ and has a flex built in. Still less than a TEP, probably Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funky Phil Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 I have one on hand and have looked it over. Will mount up soon. I have also looked over/installed a griffin recently. not impressed and for the money, the fan mounting holes had to be enlarged due to inaccuracy and even the radiator cap port was keyed crooked.

jimalan1989 Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 Bump on finding out about this radiator, want something bolt in that doesn't require much mods I would like one that easily excepts stock fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasQuest Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 Too bad it costs $700..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alsandr Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 Just because they're out of stock. The price should go down before too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 Too bad it costs $700..... Because they're out of stock. Easier for them to change the price then take down the ad. At least that is my guess. The intercooler price went back to normal. Which must mean they have them in stock now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'87quest Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 I've heard that a Datsun 260z aluminum radiator (3 row) will bolt right up (might just need to shave the mounts a bit but the holes line up I believe) and even has the correct hose outlets. That would be a cheap alternative if you don't need the thermo sensors for the stock fans. Here's a link if anyone's interested. http://m.ebay.com/itm/251753557743?nav=SEARCH Drake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
