Thanks for noticing actually I applied a discount to those parts, since they are used. The prices you see listed are generally not the prices I paid, but rather, what I feel the parts are worth USED if I were to part the vehicle out. This way the value is more realistic for todays used market. And it would also serve as a parts list in the rare case I suddenly decide to part the vehicle out (unlikely).
