Sad isn't it. I guess he's hoping to get more for the sum of each of the parts than one would for the whole vehicle.

It is sad if this is mint as he said it is. So the question is what is it worth in one piece?
:bannana:

More than the sum of it's parts I would say.

Sounds like someone who knows nothing about everything.

It's one thing to strip a write-off for all the remaining good parts, but on perfectly good car? Is this guy an idiot?

He's just hoping someone will say "No, don't do it, I'll buy it " Once the big(?) money items have sold he would be left with loads of stuff which would take ages to shift. He's hoping for a sale in complete form.

Or is he only selling the bits that don't have serial numbers

Crickey, he's holding the car to ransom.

Or the flip side, it might actually make more money in parts than as a going concern? After all, most vehicles that are broken for spares tend to have either front end accident damage etc so don't have so many useful spares.

Seems ridiculous, but I have done this many years ago with motorbikes. I needed certain parts, bought a complete running bike in good order and sold of the parts I didn't need. Ended up with more cash than the bike cost and a load of parts that would have cost me a fair amount on their own

I responded to an ad not a million miles away from this type and ordered a W124 front centre air vent and stereo system (headunit, speakers, cd, wiring etc.). Sent my £80 and never saw hide nor hair of the items, I chased and chased and he simply said it must have been lost in the post. Because each item wasn't listed on eBay you have no protection.
