...I bought four NOS hubcaps for $600. It was the price of a set of ten spokes. My wife thought it was a drug deal, because the transaction was done behind a shaddy looking trailer.
Well, heres you chance to be special....

I think it still is a drug deal? I offered him $100.
The outer ring on the back would have to be painted black to be concours correct also...
Gee only 10700?
He got a free listing!
(so are the drugs behind the emblems?)
3 sets please....
Shiny......
I sold a nos set of 4 in the ford boxes for $400. back in the 90s & thought i did good just to get rid of them as nobody cared back then since everybody wanted 10 spokes!!
My MaMa said I'm special... and I didn't come with hub caps...
Wonder what the thought process was when they came up with the price!
Thought process?
Well he probably went to BJ and saw a car with those hub caps go for lots of cash, so he did a mathematical estimate of what percentage 4 wheels meant to the car and came up with that figure?

Sure the price is super high/insane....but the $700 in the $10700 is what makes me scratch my head (and when I see similar prices for cars like $75,200).
Do people think to themselves oh let me add on $700 because if someone wants to pay $10,000 maybe I can squeeze a little more outta them!?
When I think of a price for a car I'm selling I always think in nice numbers that usually go in $500 increments! I also consider myself a bit normal LOL

He used that Common Core Math everyone loves so much.
PERFECT, Common Core! Yes he did use that!!! LOL
Technically The S8MS-1132-A are wheel covers rather than hubcaps. ;)
