D90 Stock seats feeler

[phoenix37]

Thinking about buying a set of Corbeaus and wondering what my stock seats are worth. They are out of a 95 ST and in very good shape They are newly upholstered with land rover logo gray fabric and would come with a set of waterproof seat covers. What can i get for these?

I just paid roughly $350 for a pair, and one needed repair and recovering. I'd say yours are in the $250-$300 each range.

John,
You can try ebaying them with a reserve or search ebay under "completed items" in the advanced search function and see what the last pair fetched.

There's been decent set on Ebay for $500 for nearly a month with no bites.

They look just like this so just the upholstery kit is $399... I guess ill ebay them and see if it makes sense to sell.

John,
It is not really the best time to ebay stuff with everyone recovering from Christmas. March/April is the best time to sell before everyone starts saving for the summer vacations. June/July/August everyone is on vacation so you don't get the exposure. September/October is good before Christmas worries hit again. I have been selling on Ebay for about 10 years and the above seems to hold a bit of truth for car parts. The above advice doesn't work at all if you need the cash :).

Clay thanks for the advice. I havent sold much on ebay..Just so happens Ive had a couple weeks off of work so its given me time to think about what Id like to do to the truck etc.. Its not a matter of needing the cash so much as I dont have the room to store a bunch of car parts so before buying new seats Id like to know I can get rid of the old ones. Sounds like ill just hang on to them for now.
