FS: Mazdaspeed Front Strut Tower Bar
Up for sale is my Mazdaspeed front strut tower bar w/ built in master brake cylinder. Overall the piece is in good condition with some minor scrapes from installation. Let me know if you'd like any more pics. This will be out of my engine bay the second payment clear. I've got a reliable shipper down the street so will be shipped within 24 hours of cleared payment 
PM me with any questions and/or your zip for a very reasonable shipping quote. As you can see, no dings or dents in the bar, but a few scuffs on the side plates. Bar is located in 92705 Zip 
Price is $220 OBO - Sorry, not looking for trades for other bars right now!
Dirty engine bay getting scrubbed with the rest of the car this weekend :D

J - you got me!!!! But really, I actually have some time to spend on cleaning my car this weekend and intend to use it to the very highest potential, pics will follow 
TopGear - Someone actually PMd me the same offer, but at 1:24PM so I'd have to say they're one notch above you. I am going to give this the rest of the night for locals, though I don't mind shipping at all!

Ehh, I'm comfortable with shipping. If someone could offer the full asking price of $220 + a heavily discounted shipping rate they would have dibs for shipped 
We shall see though, thanks!

Thanks for the incorrect info though :PFor quite some time it was the only Strut bar that integrated a master brake cylinder brace. Strut bars themselves won't change much but under heavy braking in increased response/firmness has been noted by many many top forum users, when using this brace.
You can also get a chepo ebay strut bar that will do 100% the same job as the JIC or Mazdatrix, but for even cheaper!
For those of you who know the value, best offer is still $220 shipped. Tomorrow I'll be willing to finalize that and consider it sold so get at me if you can do $220 + a nominal shipping fee. Thanks!

I have someone offering full asking price + shipping/paypal fees, the only way I can let it go to anyone else is they must either be local or the original buyer must back out.
So what is the point of showing up in FS threads and saying, "Oh I got mine for less" or "way overpriced." I don't understand, I don't go into others' threads and say "I got my exhaust for way cheaper than that, but glws" or "Wow, I got my intake for so much less, but nice price!"
Thanks for the "help" though guys... I am personally replacing it with the JIC 4 pt + hopefully axial flow brace.
Locals, get at me tonight or forever hold your peace.

I'm actually impressed with that price, things have changed since I purchased my bar, that's for sure.
Why hasn't this happened to everyone else who listed there's for around $200??? I've seen on multiple occasions the bar sell for ~$200 used and $300-325 for the front and rear. Where was their thread trashing?
I've sold plenty of things on here prior to the seller feedback system (15+ items) and really don't try to pull anything over potential buyers. For what its worth, sorry for my pricing ignorance?
Let me know what your offers are, I still wish to sell this. I would have much more appreciated it if some of you had PM'd me letting me know the price was a bit high, I certainly would have adjusted and posted the reason up front. I'm an easy to work with seller that really wants the best for the buyer and himself alike, I'm not out to rob anyone's pocketbook...

His prices in general were pretty damn good, $1000 for KW V3's is a steal as well as the deal on his RB exhaust. Polak was selling his car, so it looks like he was looking to get rid of everything quickly. Still, I priced it OBO to keep this type of thing from happening - I figured if it were overpriced, I would simply get offered less than my asking, which was alright. Really, I'm not doubting anything, its just been a while since I've seen these prices.
Heh, you guys do realize OBO means Or Best Offer, right?
Team, thanks for the PM but personal costs for items (mazdaspeed parts program?) isn't necessarily applicable to the general public.
So we've established three things:
A) You can get one for $220 + shipping new from rx7store.net - that's a great price!
B) My asking price is OBO, "Or Best Offer"
C) The MS bar is clearly something many people are interested in, and is still available
