So there's this DOPE Volvo 122 with a SR20DET swap on Fleabay that I want to buy for my son for christmas- Buy It Now is $15,500, bidding is below reserve still. I message the guy and offer him $15,000 for it since it'll cost me $1500 to truck it home, he responds and tells me he's already accepted a local deal and is just waiting for the check to clear.
That seems sort of fucked up to me. Am I wrong? If the auction is still up and I go ahead and use the Buy It Now option at $15,500 isn't he obligated to sell the car to me? Is my understanding of eBay wrong, or am I just a douche with a sense of entitlement?

I don't get this... This part was $26 shipped from Taiwan. Someone somewhere is losing money on this...

Not really the Memphis thing.. but the fact that it was $26 for the item + shipping to go from Taiwan to the US. It's a pretty large box too. The coolant spacer I shipped the other day was $20, and is much smaller than what this box will be, and is going from AZ to TX.

Question for you 1.6 peasants.
A friend bought a kit that includes a megasquirt, but he is clueless when it comes to them. From what I gathered, it just has a harness with a bunch of wires coming out, so I assume it's not an MSPNP.
I'm looking for the ECU connector for the early NAs so I can just wire it up to that and make it a PNP. Can anyone with a 1.6 confirm for me that this is the connector?
