New taillights at ebay in germany with 935 euro bid?!

[Johan]

Silly question but are they really worth that?

no

revised: let me elaborate, let's say a 950 point restoration of a CS or CSi is worth 25-40 thousand (some think they are.) Do YOU think tailights are 2 1/2 - 4% of the value of your car?

lets say the same for an unrestored and 90-point CSL, 2-5% of the value?

Remember, most of our nicer cars are like 85 point vehicles according to show standards, and 750-800 points according to concours standards.

My take (since lenses and tailites are still MT-available items) this is just some bid frenzy that will never actually close for what the high bid is.

But then, I could be so very wrong.

yes, I see your points and agree fully

I was just wondering if there was something I missed?

Or maybe it is just someone with more money than sense....
