talk about a big time fake. I've heard of running backs making a juke and 'breaking' a DB's ankles, but that's just a saying! Dang dude.

Expect a lot of prices to go up on eBay. They are pushing lower fees, but to get those lower fees you need to pay more. 
A basic store used to cost $16 a month and you would get charged 2 cents a month for each listing you had. Now they want 20 cents for each listing. If you have 150 listings, that fee just went from $3 to $30, on top of the $16. If you want to only pay a 5 cent insertion fee, then you need to upgrade the store to the next level which is $50. The final value fee of 12% stays the same.
Auctions starting at 99 cents or less are now free. That's good. But if you have a store it costs you 10 cents to list it. WTF?? I pay extra for a store but don't get a free listing?
Final value for an auction is 9% with a $50 cap for non-store owners. If you have a store it's a little cheaper, but there is no cap.
It used to be sorta cheap to have a store to let your items sit there until sold, but not any more.

Well I got a kick in the face today.
All the people who ordered 6.2L Raptors who had March build dates and early April delivery dates have been told they won't see their trucks till May and some not till June. WTF Ford. It was already late in teh cycle to be shipping 2010's. Now I could end up with a 2010 a month before the 2011's show up. I'll keep my order in the system as I don't plan on getting anything else. But this sucks *** *****. They were supposed to start taking orders in November of 2009 for a WINTER 2010 delivery. Well winter ended 2 days ago. So the order banks didn't actually open until January 8th 2010 and no one has taken delivery. None have shipped. Supposedly 200 are made but they are being held with problems. Those trucks are supposed to be stock shipments to dealers and will continue to be held until whatever teh problem is is worked out. No ordered truck has been made, or will be made till the problem is fixed. So it'll be May or later before anyone has a 6.2L Raptor.
Wonder if they are having problems with the 6.2L in the Super Duty too.
Plus someone just posted here that the 5.0's are being held up now too.
**** me!

I guess it's better to wait and have any problems fixed then get it now and have a bunch of problems later. 
Still sucks though.

That sux *** Gary, to be so close and now have to wait even more. Maybe it would be better to hold off and order and '11. Would there be less of a chance for issues? Or is it better to have the first model year of the truck?
I noticed in the Ford PPC that there are quite a few Raptor parts avaliable.

Ok, so in all seriousness does anyone think that these center caps would look good in the GT500 wheel?? I can get them from KC for about $27 each. Not a bad price and they may match the finish better.
