gas tank

Sorry, I may have led some folks astray. I bought my tank from George (ebay) over a year ago. From the sounds of some previous threads his pricing has changed. Lucky me! Bob
 
Naw Bob, I don't think you caused any harm E-bay prices vary all over the map from time to time. Consumer prices in general are on the rise with the rise in crude oil prices. However, IHOP his tank is still a bargain at $300.00.---Keoke
 
Can someone point me to George on Ebay? The only tank I see there is from Jorge, which I guess is a version of George! But his tank is $350+shipping. Where's this $300 tank? Moss is $310 which I will probably wind up doing.

Does anyone sell used original tanks? Perhaps reconditioned already? Hey I've got a core...

You might want to check shipping and handling first so you don't end up ... /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wall.gif

Thanks! He must have lowered his price in the past few days (probably in response to Moss).


Nope he just hid it in my secret place.--- /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif The Quality difference is more than justified.---Keoke
 
carlivar said:
So this Ebay tank is better quality than Moss? Has anyone seen the Moss tank?


No not lately. However, you might check with them folks ovber in Pakistan.---Keoke-- /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/devilgrin.gif------------- /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif

You could ask Steve Byers who runs the BJ8 registry. I remember seeing a post on the Healey List recently and he just installed a new Moss tank. Also, keep in mind that Moss is very good about returns if something doesn't meet your expectations or you have problems with it in the future. Not all vendors are as flexible and accommodating.
 
Well John, You know when you buying all the things you sell from someone else you gotta be in an apologetic mood.However, Jorge has been an independent Jaguar parts manufacturer/ supplier for many years. He has been a seller on E-bay since 2001 and enjoys a 99% positive Feed back rating from a total of 1879 customers. Consequently, since he makes the parts himself using US steel he really does not have a reason to apologize--Keoke-AZ= /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/cowboy.gif
 
Apologize?!? I guess you missed a big chunk of news (that unfortunately can't be discussed here)! /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/angel.gif

Boy, I'm soooo glad you posted that ($600.00 later, as I opted for a new set of aluminum seat pans too).

Yes, Jorge seems like a terrific guy, but just set aside a block of time if you call him /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif
