Capri Owner's Manual

Check out the price that this owner's manual went for on EBay last night - $59.98!

I saw it a few nights ago & it looked in excellent condition so I thought I would put in a bid. I already have one but I it is not as good as the one that was advertised. I put in a few bids but they were quickly passed. I was prepared to go to about $20 but, as you can see, that was way out. If you look at the bids, the winner went way over the next bidder.
 
It just goes to show that good Capri bits & pieces can still pull top prices.

    IIRC a 3000GT version went for over $100 a year or two ago.  We could start a really interesting thread about the top dollar prices we have seen things sell for, like an ashtray last week for $152 etc

    This is "progress" at work !...............It's so easy to list anything on the net......AND THE WHOLE PLANET SEES IT !
    Before the WWW was invented, it was like pulling teeth ringing the Age (ICPOTA!) or The Trading Post or Local rag and go thru the motions, etc...........and then the long wait and repeating all the above in the hope it will sell, with an audience probably 1% that of the WWW !
    So with so many seeing a RARE ITEM, up goes the bidding fever !
