The 4spd knob shown did not carry the part number on the box shown on this auction.

I thought it was just some kind of a tatoo on his butt? Now I understand.

Steve is getting to be Mr Strange it appears. He wouldn't sell a Boss 9 part to my friend because my friend has never bought from him before. "Strange"

Just look at the prices of other items he sells and you may be surprised. Do the prices give a indication of other things like over sized ego? Heaven help you if question anything. I messaged him and suggested that he include 67 Ten spoke as a additional application for some S7MS lugnuts he had listed for 69 Shelby so as to widen his net and wished him well with his auction . You would have thought I called him a dirty name the way he messaged back and bit my head off. Kind of a D!(K  move if you ask me.

There seem to be a few actors who like to mark up everything they sell 2x or 3x full retail

Im all for making a profit, but that seems a little excessive

I got a pair of these in the boxes. I'll be nice and sell a pair for what he wants for 1  ;D  https://www.ebay.com/itm/266259098980?itmmeta=01HRHY415PMSYWWXQTM0MNVP99&hash=item3dfe476d64:g:1aIAAOSwOzJlV6cr

Now I have been following this knob for years. He started under a thousand. Then went up to 1200. When it was 1600 I bought an NOS one off of Jim Cowles(RIP) for 275. Now he want 1975 for it. Parts are not for sale but advertisement. https://www.ebay.com/itm/264340679907?itmmeta=01HRHYD84XX4GMM7MJNWX6HE7M&hash=item3d8beeace3:g:9QoAAOSwhqVbKs~n&itmprp=enc%3AAQAIAAAA0Kl7XaLdVcW0ozJj%2FiwNlsEELsX4WyKKuK7tX1WSEsZKN%2BdRU5vBQOQt%2BIBQE5UefVWLnB718ic0%2BQPo9R4XwJOrT6r4o%2FaToa9TgkVr%2BQ%2F%2BgIjR6eH%2FevSjHuJTsDoE80yLwQmdvnpkUK2StPBJF4S1BYa%2B83%2Fsajfu2kKkw7ze32Je0qJtbGnDKCs1%2Fu4218wLVshAVKBdv9Tsk2mwQA7Ushw2Iv9sHo4NSiDBhM895tWevDGhqIvK0e6RDiWwnIVqFL7Tfx97j6YAu%2BNOe6w%3D%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR8yCtb7EYw

Quotelike over sized ego?

Having your picture in your parts auctions, might be a clue?
