Hi all

I've been off the forum for a while, whilst the E30 has been laid-up. I've also realised I have far too many wheels and spares, but after seeing the very high asking price of the Hartges on Ebay, I also have no idea on values.

This isn't a sales pitch - I just want to know a fair price.

14" BBS - pretty much perfect, including centre-caps.

15" BBS - pretty much perfect, not sure about how many centre caps I have.

13 button OBC and bits - perfect.

7 button OBC - can't remember what this is like...

Could you give me a clue please, range of values?

Thanks!

These are fairly common items so you should be able to find examples of these that have recently sold on eBay by using the advanced search feature and ticking the completed items box. From these you can see listings that have sold and also failed to sell and the prices thereof. This will give you a rough idea, but you need to bare in mind condition and how complete the items are. There are a lot of unknowns in your list. Descriptions alone aren't enough as these are subjective and one man's idea of 'mint' or 'perfect' maybe another's idea of average. Hope this helps.

Sure - thanks.

However Ebay 'sold' doesn't always mean sold
:)

And your point on subjective condition makes comparison of any 'for sale' items quite difficult, unless the photos are very good.

I thought the market for these common items would be quite well-known on here.

No worries I'll make something up.
