Title: I dont get it ... Irmscher Grille
Post by: hoj on 28 April 2011, 13:39:55

Been watching 2 x Irmscher Grilles on a well known auction site Both are for facelift Omegas.
However one ends an hour before the other the one ending first is £45 start and £7.62 postage with NO bids as yet the one ending last is now on £47 with a tenner postage.
Baffles me

As above, buy the cheaper copy version, then buy the Irmscher silhouette badge off another person on ebay and stick it on.  If you're just after the look, with the badge no-one would probably realise at the end of the day.

A lot of people who sell Irmscher stuff think its okay to charge the earth, just because it's got a 'name label'.

There's another thread on here regarding the Omega Irmscher steering wheels and how Irmsher are still selling them for a whacking hefty price even though the Omega hasn't sold for years and not many people probably want them!
