The chance there could be a bidding war and they go for higher than what the sell on the site?

Actually, the BuyItNow is $279. I think it's because people that shop eBay are looking for a bargain. That's very tempting. Those are the ones I want. Hopefully they still have some on there in a few weeks, otherwise, I'll just have to email them and ask them to meet their eBay price.

On Ebay do they charge shipping ? Because I don't think they do if you order from the website. That could be the difference eh?


Edit: NM just checked the Ebay add and they don't charge shipping.

Sometimes a manufacturer won't let businesses sell their product below an authorized "floor price" and eBay is a great way around that since it's not done through the retail side of your store in some cases.

Otherwise, it's just a bad practice to undersell yourself because you are giving away a closer number to your bottom line price.

If someone actually made a regular bid on a BIN auction with the BIN price as the reserve, they would be Deet-dee-dee.

If you don't mine slightly used ones, you could try craigslist or mustang forums. Every once in a while someone is selling FR GTAs.

Well I ordered mine and got a call today from Ninosport to say that all the remaining stock has one defective muffler. Something to do with the welds. Now they are on back order but they will give me them at the eBay price.

Installed these yesterday. Really not much difference from stock, maybe a little deeper rumble. 4 inch pipes look great though. At highway speeds there is no drone, but they are a little quieter than I thought they would be.

To be honest, if you are buying these they would be strictly for looks. I'll have to see if they get louder as they age as I've read this is the case. I heard a set of Steeda stingers today at a Mustang show. I was pretty impressed with them and they didn't sound too loud, but not sure if they drone. That would be a deal breaker for me.

I have FRPP stingers.

I dont know what you guys are calling drone but there is sound while cruising, but nothing like stock manifolds, 2 chamber flows and O/R hpipe...

Honestly they're not loud enough, and a couple people were telilng me that they would be loud and have drone when i first got them... I'm thinkin they were old middle aged men...
