[Peugeot-L] Why I wont be pulling any more parts from the junkyard to sell

OnSo I am cleaning up the barn and I find 2 sets of 505 wheels / rims. Rather than putting them in car I am junking for extra weigh = $$ I decide to put them out on Ebay to hopefully help out another 505 driver. The rims are listed here

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ViewItem&ih=004&sspagename=STRK%3AMESO%
3AIT&viewitem=&item=140046689260&rd=1

So I get a whopping $54 for the rims. And its going to be about $53 to ship them. Yep I am not charging for my time or gas to get the the Fed Ex location. I just think Im doing a good thing not Jacking the guy on shipping.

I then get this wonderful Email from the winner. He accuses me of having my friend Up the bid at the last minute by $10. And threatens to report me to Ebay. Plus he wants a discount on shipping. WTF ???

I also am selling 2 cars on Ebay . I inform him that "IF" I were to play games it wouldnt be on a $50 set of rims. It be on the cars. I also thank him for proving to me that its worth my time to grab the good parts that I see in the junkyard. Then sell them on Ebay at No profit, just so some other 505 owner can still find used parts.

I know this group is much more mature than this individual. But I wanted to give you all a overview why people like me stop grabbing parts to help keep old cars on the roads.
