Guys it appears to me that our Dear Friends at Ebay will not let the general public go back and look at a listing after it has expired or has sold.Originally posted by BirdsAndBugs View Post

Seems to me that is what is happening here. They refer you to a similar open "like" listing. Appears to me that Minnesota Greg lists the open listing for the "boot". It has closed by the time Nevada Greg hits the expired/sold link and Ebay in their inimitable wisdom searches for an open listing for a "Thunderbird boot", finds none and points to a "similar" item--a Thunderbird Hardtop! We know it ain't similar but they evidently don't or are protecting their listings or trying to ensure we don't contact a expired listing's owner to make a deal outside of Ebay cutting Ebay out of a fee.
Just a guess obviously.

I think its a setup so he can follow it with a mention of the great deal he got on his car/boot/diecast/mats/TBird shirt or underwear at Walmart.Originally posted by BirdsAndBugs View Post

Just a guess on my part obviously as well.....Last edited by RustyFrye; Jul 30, 2018, 02:00 PM.Bird is the word.....

Interesting the redirected hardtop just sold. ((I think it is the same hardtop...could be wrong). A good sale, on another Tbird chat sight seller mentioned totalling his Tbird and having the top in his garage. Was going to take the top to the dump unless it would sell. Started at $5 and ended at over $900. Shrewd business decision, I’d say!Pensacola, FL
