[57loboy]

Holy cr%p! I have that one too...for $500, why not unload it! Though we'll probably not even break $5.00 when we list ours!

I just don't get it on this one. I'm holding out for 2 grand :biggrin:

I'm tempted to sell all my GNX stuff and buy a Grand National with the money.

I wonder why this magazine in particular ?

 

[GSX-PKV]

I have one also! Do you really think that sale is legit???

I bought my WE4 brand new and bought every and I mean every... I constantly was on the lookout... magazine with anything about GN's TTypes or GNX's and still have them all in fairly mint condition.

 

[twinvipers]

Can I get financing for this magazine

 

[GSX-PKV]

I will throw in at no extra charge some of my wife's Oprah magazines!

 

[jamier]

I only have the march 87 issue only 31.00 for me... well it's half a tank of gas....

Even before I bought my car new, I knew I'd get one and bought and saved these magazines. I stored them in one of my wife's plastic Container Store containers so they stayed in good shape. Just for fun, I put together a list of what I have and I have not looked at them in 19-20 years so now I have something to read this winter with no more NFL. The ads and classified ads are fun to look at. New GNX's still in plastic wrapping are advertised for sale in the Autoweek classifieds. #085 - 14 miles.

WTF?

You have GOT to be kidding me, right?

$400 and $500 for a magazine?

The winning bidder of this stuff needs to call me. I got over 700 I can make him a deal on:

JSTA6 SELLS

 

[jsta6]

so, this guy just paid $900 for two magazines?

eBay Member Profile for tlvowell

I wonder who he was bidding against?

 

[turbo39151]

probably a couple of friends trying to start hyping up these magazines to see if they can start a frenzy among GN buyers. Looks like it's working...

I suppose if you look hard enough you'll find the same thing has happened or is happening with other "rare" cars and magazines that feature them...

I have the muscle car review one, but I cut the GNX pics out of it to hang in the garage a few years ago.

That could have cost you millions of dollars!!!! I still wonder what the deal was with those magazines. What is some kind of ebay scam?? Paul

 

[GNX 233 485]

Has to be a scam to try and catch someone bidding or pump up prices. 905.00 for 2 magazines to 1 person, I cant believe it.
Paul, Thanks for the GNX info. It was great reading.

You guys should know by now don't believe everything you see on Ebay. And don't believe everything you see sell at Barrett Jackson.
