I just won an auction for a 996 or 986 widebody front end. The bumper has some damage but should be repairable. The seller claimed they were $15k at one time and he had a reserve of over $2000 for them so I thought my $100 bid was safe. Don't know why I bid - I don't even own a 996. Guess I figured if it was cheap enough. Well guess what, I now am on the hook to the tune of $275 or so with shipping. Anybody want to take them off my hands? The auction is here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...3AIT&viewitem= Let me know. First one in gets them.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Have you considered contacting Bruce and explaining the situation to him and mutually withdraw your bid? If they are worth more than you paid I don't see why Bruce wouldn't just relist them. Just a thought.
Yes, I also know Bruce... (a little) he is a great person and I think you will owe him some end of auction fees ($20) but just tell him your story.... he should be understanding
I always honor my ebay auctions. Just the kind of guy I am. I think I may have found a buyer for them so it should all work out - provided that Bruce is OK with the deal. Thanks for the positive character references for Bruce - it's always good to know the people you are dealing with are upstanding guys.
