I bet you could easily bring back a grand plus for it.

There's two plus sides to this situation:

1. You can mount it and laugh at the passenger for having to sit in the OEM seat while you sit in your, apparently, $3000 seat.2. Sell it and get about 30x what you spent on it.

I'd personally go for #2, and then you can buy yourself something else worth the money.

nope. i bought it from a salesman at a car dealership place. they bought the ferrari from an auction and it came with both factory seats, and this bucket seat. when they sold the car to its new owner he opted not to keep the seat. then the salesman had it sitting in his office for a few weeks til he got sick of it and put it on craigslist. thats were i came in

cody, I would do a reserve on this auction just because people who can afford ferrari will probably not go on ebay to save a few bucks

I'd say you want to expect about 3500 and give or take 500 if the condition is really good.

Don't be discouraged if it doesn't sell on the 1st week. Don't settle for what you can get more for.

After you get the money.... email the orignal seller and tell him "hey, thanks for throwing away money... I made $2000+ from you."

hhahahah

Speechless, seriously I can't think of what to say. If that seat truely costs $5500.00, sell that motherfuker right now. Rather have 5500 worth of parts in my car then the seat. iojfdbg;kjzdfbzdfg

Wow... lucky mofo...

Anyhow, I would totally sell it. It's only logical. If you wouldn't buy it for how much you can sell it for, then sell it. Opportunity cost iirc from econ.
