onestopatv on ebay: check this guy out!

[davham]

What the heck is this guy doing? Look at all those oem parts in his auctions, look at the quanity's available. I tried to order a headlight switch from service honda and was told they have ran out, that's it no more. I now know why. This guy has 16 of them and selling them for THREE times as much. Look at his bin's on the rest of the plastic, way more than service honda.
This crap strikes a nerve with me for sure, let's buy up all the remaining oem plastic and make a buck on ebay. Someone in Ohio go shoot this guy before 85-86 R plastic becomes as rare as new tank.

[BLAZERONE22]

I bought 2 sets of plastic before they ran out, I wish I had bought a switch though. I was surfing ebay, wonder how much he's gonna be selling this for.

I guess that Hondaline 350x headlight guard I won today for $76.00 was a bargain. I have a feeling he isn't paying that much for it. Remember the 350x he won for $11k and paid $4800.00 for it. Chit like that happens everyday and e-bay can't do a thing about it. :lol:

Its a guy called "Hammy" from the Pilot forums,he's not real popular over there as well.

[max]

ill drop the dude like a hot potato. wat an azz.

[Maine_Triker]

Well, at least he was smart enough to buy up all the stuff, but selling it for double his money.... that's kinda pushing it.

[Maine_Triker]

Holy crap, look at this 250r HL guard: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4591478635&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1


$$$$ :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: $$$$

I only paid $100 for my NOS chrome 350x one.... the more I look the more it seems like I got a very good deal! :rolleyes:

Phil

[Orangecnty250r]

Well its nothing that Cal ATV hasnt done for a long time.....When I talked to them they said they gets lists of parts that are running low....Then they buy them all up and mark em up.

Lomax warned us about the fenders winding down in the Honda stock....Remember....you snooze you lose. Has anyone had official word from Service Honda that they are gone?????? (the fenders)

Believe me I like the Purist philosophy of parts being available and at retail prices but we live in a capitalist country...Man if that were true I would have a fatter wallet. Plus I havent seen his fenders go for alot more than Honda (I think i paid 240 for a rear).....Cal ATV is still selling some 250r fenders $255...Once again buy now or forever hold your peace....because of the 250r's sheer numbers and the machines popularity these now NOS fenders will hit 500.00 at some point for the factory purists who dont want maier. Plus once Honda officially discontinues a part the previous retail prices mean squat

Well onestopATV is a businessman and I know we dont like business messing with a love or a sport.....but honestly when I find "Extras" in my parts searches I try to maximize my selling price to offset the incredible cost of my collection....But those who help me I return the favor as some of you know:naughty: I'll be selling some incredibly rare extras soon:naughty:

[ZRacer94]

well i guys that would explain why you want 150 bucks for a $70 tire

[Aussieduner]

I ordered front and rear '86 250r fenders recently and was informed ETA first week in December so i would say still available.

Aussie

[patblkwell]

Haha wtf...this guy must have a time capsule because he's getting all of these oem parts from somewheres...I don't know what to say about this one..he must know something we don't know ;)

[Orangecnty250r]

well i guys that would explain why you want 150 bucks for a $70 tire

OK here we go.....This is what you dont seem to get or understand:rolleyes: ....Its not a 70.00 dollar tire anymore when you cant buy them!.....Just like the tecate shroud I bought wasnt an 18.00 part anymore (I paid over $400 with many other bidders right behind me) Thats the tip of the iceberg of some of the stuff I buy....And when I pay that kind of money for parts I dont feel bad in anyway shape or form maximizing the $$ of the rare extras I sell....If people start selling me NOS red Tri Z plastics for retail and sellers on ebay start refunding the price I paid over retail .... then I'll start selling my stuff for retail.

Hey Tecate shroud seller ...care to send me a 413.00 refund....??:lol:

As I said earlier I would love to live in a world where this discontinued stuff is available and cheap....But its not!!

If you have access to those tires then you are lucky and have a source 99.9 % of us dont have. I called every tire retailer you could google and they are obsolete. But I'm not just talking about the tire....I'm talking about the rare stuff in general.

Oh yeah... Z racer I sold a board member here who helped me out in a big way one of my extra Z tires much cheaper than the ebay thing...I 'm not in this to make money just looking to offset some of my costs at times on ebay. Its an expensive proposition having the goal of building one of the nicest collections in the country...try it:D

[sandpuppi101]

HMMM! I think this is awfully wierd,The guy's name is adam,he just bought some Hondaline NOS stuff off me on e-bay. I had to kinda raise an eyebrow ,he did pay very fast ,it was a good transaction,but I see what he is doing.He's buying a huge surplus of the rare stuff and then selling it for 2even 3 times the going rate! He wants to buy up my complete stock of Hondaline products and wants more!!He must have hit the lotto and bought up a ton of NOS stuff.It's the ole' supply and demand theory!!!

[Derrick Adams]

The price really doesn't matter, does it? If people buy it, so be it. If not, the guy just sits on it or looses his ass.

I looked at a 350X he recently had for sale and he put OEM fenders on it, along with all sorts of other add ons and only wanted $1200 for it. That seemed reasonable to me.

Knowing that it costs $500 for oem plastic for my R, I would still pay it. If I thought I wouldn't ever ride it again.

[88 Turbo Coupe]

In his add he states "The new online price leader"

[Louis Mielke]

I got a full set of OEM recently and its sitting in storage sealed. probably for an incredibly long time too.

Honestly i just hope the aftermarket keeps supporting us. If maier drops the trike stuff we're really sol. Well hafta organize and pay out the ass to get any plastic if that happens.

[sandpuppi101]

I agree with you Derrick,the part's are becoming so rare anymore that the price of a NOS part anymore is all whomever wants it, will pay! When I want quality stuff ,I have to pay for it!

[edog]

Supply and demand,and a fool and there money.Am i fool for paying $70 for a front fender for my 1985 200X.I am very happy with my purchase.These prices are getting out of control.I don't like what he is doing.I have been whatching his store on ebay for awhile.

[davham]

Wonder what ole' onestop will pay for that mint 350X? I myself will call service honda monday and if there's plastic left, I'm getting 2 complete sets for my R and they will rot in my basement.
Remember a couple of weeks ago a set of oem grips with end caps, collars and screws went for $100? Look at 'em poppin up now, for $19 you can get it all from service honda. I sent the winner a link to a page of what it really cost, prolly teed him off but I bet he thinks twice now.
Folks, dont be fooled into thinking somethings discontinued by reading ebay adds, search before you bid. Stop feeding these idiots. Bikebandit is a great place to look, it will tell you whats discontinued. CAL-ATV has light switches for $77. Service honda WAS selling them for $49. Onestop- $150 (price leader my butt).

[hrc85250r]

whatever, all you guys complain about this "discontinued" crap. well, most of the hondaline stuff is corny anyways and isnt really part of atc history, its just some random accessories nobody bought back in the day, so there is some leftover. also, of course the NOS discontinued stuff is expensive, its rare! any vehicle that was stopped from production by the government 20 years ago is going to be hard to find parts for, and since three wheelers have a following and are becoming more popular to restore, as said above, supply and demand. if you want to restore a trike, bust out your wallet. if you cant afford what its becoming to cost to restore, restore a quad. if you dont do your research and get off your ass and call around, yeah, you can end up paying 3 times what the stuff is worth on ebay. i have found everything i needed NOS at normal cost from the dealer, given it wasnt very rare or hard to find, i didnt go directly to ebay. if you cant find your handlebar switch at your dealer, call around the country to a few dealers, chances are there will be one dealer with the switch. i found a short track tank at a dealer in tennessey, but when i called a few days later it was gone, but the point is i found it after a few calls. quit complaining about how much NOS stuff is on ebay, if the demand isnt there, he will lower his price, gauranteed. give me a break guys, duh.

[Aussieduner]

The days of things being gone,not available etc are over.....If you have a sample part like say a rear fender for a 250r any copy company in China will recreate it and produce it as good as the original but the catch is you have to order numbers.Im really suprised Maier still maufacture there product in the US.

Food for thought.

I'm not complaining about how much NOS stuff is on ebay....And yes if the demand isnt there the price lowers...Prices are cyclical also depending on whos in the game for what at any given time

I agree with just about everything you said....and I've done a tremendous amount of calling around for stuff and have found some cool stuff....But

My experiences go something like this
Call # 1 to a Kawi dealer "Do you have parts for a Tecate Three Wheeler"
Response: "Uhh Ducati made a three wheeler"

Call# 2 "Do you have part # ??"
Response: "No way man that stuff is obsolete try ebay"

Call # 3 "Do you have part # ??"
Response: No we've only been in business 10 years, we wouldnt have any of that stuff.

Call # 4 After being on hold 8 minutes. Do you have part#??
Response: "Honda says Discontinued"
I think::: NO S@*T

Repeat, Repeat, Repeat, Several days later on the phone

FAST Forward to call # 50

You hang up the phone and say wish I would have bought that part a while back and 150.00 doesnt look to bad if you cant find them anywhere else..Time is Money...(Switch is a bad example because they are not that rare) I'm talking about the "REAL rare parts"

Oh and those days of finding something at a dealer in the states are winding down very soon . I make calls but a certain person (Not me ...I swear... not to hard to figure out who ) has employees hitting the phones all day long buying the remaining parts to corner the 3 wheeler market so there there will be only ONESTOP

So once again I say "Its OK to buy smart"...... but if you want a part or think you will be redoing a certain machine in the future -----"BUY now or forever hold your peace"
Bill

[88 Turbo Coupe]

I imagine this could mean we will start to see the beginning of more nice 3 wheelers being parted out.

[hrc85250r]

i am totally with you on all of your points orangecnty, but as far as "someone" cornering the 3 wheeler market i disagree. i am willing to bet onestop is just another one of us guys, quite a bit more greedy, but nonetheless, into three wheelers, and he came across a buttload of NOS stuff he knows was worth some money and are hard to get and he bought them. big deal. to everyone that thinks onestop is a dick, buy your stuff from someone else. end of story.

[Howdy]

OneStopATV has been buying Honda accessories books / brochure for a while now ( he has out bid me on some in the past ). I am not sure how he is getting the part numbers for the items in them, but I am sure he is ( some how ). If someone else could figure this out and check on all the part numbers then they would have a chance at getting any cool stuff Honda might still have. The 83 Honda Accessories book on Ebay now is a good example. He is bidding on it. ;)

If their is a part you need and they say it is discontinued ORDER it just because the online dealers like service honda says it discontinued dont mean its discontinued, same with your local dealers when they say its discontinued tell them "just order me one" it dont cost them or you anything for them to place the order, back in 1999 Honda said the Pilot front left fender was discontinued so I used my web page and message board to tell all my users to go order a front left fender, we as a group nation wide placed orders for front left fenders, sure enough 6 months later we had front left fenders Honda got enough orders so they started making them again, here is the old link on my web page about this http://12.215.122.222/leftfender.htm this also happen to the Honda Pilot transmission final shaft but it took 8 months before the "discontinued" part made its way to my door step, I bought two I have no idea how many other final shafts were ordered I know the count on the front left fenders was over 75

Keep in mind the Honda Pilot was a low production unit they only sold about 4500 89 and 90 Pilots in the USA not sure on sales outside the USA but I know there were less than 4500

Hey Hoser
long time no talk:D but like you said i found stacks of parts that have been discontinued by just putting the order through..(you have to find a honda dealer that will do it) about 30% of the time the part will come back...so discontinued does'nt always mean it gone.....
as for onestop....... the price of parts are as much as someone is willing to pay for them...i know i paid well over the odds on many rare parts over the years...but that guy is a butt hole..he emailed me not to bid on a item because he said 'i will win this item' ...he won't be doing this for long if he keep talking a hit on the parts he buy from ebay........ he lost $700 on that NOS 350x tank...hehehehe
oh by the way honda only made 4500 pilots in total.........

[hoser]

The Honda Pilot didi not sell well because of its size and the price, the day you could walk into the dealer and buy a Pilot you could buy a Pilot or for the same price (usually less) buy two new TRX250R's ,, people always want a Pilot now but that group is small if you think of the numbers Honda wants to deal with, one guy that works for Honda told me when the first week the 400EX hit the dealers they sold more 400EX's that week than they sold 89 and 90 Pilots in 4 years.

I have seen a lot of Pilots and Odysseys sell because of their size, lack of places to ride them, trailer space to transport them and the room they consume in the garage when not in use.

You guys have a list of discontinued trike parts you want to buy lets all go to our local dealers and order them see if Honda will make more, I will go order a rear fender and cylinder for a 83 ATC250R,,, anybody else????

[xd 200x]

one stop lives in ohio. I got the same email about the fast freddy stuff that just went on ebay a couple of days ago.

[mudbogger]

I am a member of another board that onestopatv post/sells parts on, he also goes by the user id SAMMYHAMMY-he has a very interesting reputation on these boards, he is currently bidding on a 350x on Ebay for 4600 dollars on Ebay which raised my eyebrow alittle-he also had a ebay id of AMANDA in the past months as well, I called Trevor at Hillside Honda(which I deal with for some other parts) and he told me he hadn't sold up many plastics to the guy, so he may be getting them from supply houses that auction them off?Some say he is scam artist-other say he is like others that list on EBAY-I gues it is a personal issue when it comes to purchasing from him, I saw Dennis Kirk still has the Maier Plastics for my 350x,the prices seem to be ok as well, better than his, but there arent OEM parts like he has, has anybody ever purchased from his plastics here and if so-was the transaction ok?

[patblkwell]

Damn, this guy his pulling oem plastics out of his a** that I thought were long discontinued....I'd really like to know how he has tracked some of these parts down.

[hoser]

Damn, this guy his pulling oem plastics out of his a** that I thought were long discontinued....I'd really like to know how he has tracked some of these parts down.

You can track the parts down just I ASSume he is doing, your local Honda shop should be able to locate the parts for you in the Honda parts system, they search for the part number, their is two ways they can do it (forget all the details) one way is FREE SLOW and not accurate the other you have to pay a fee for but its faster and more accurate, this search searches ALL Honda dealers inventorys.

Ask your dealer for all the details, years ago a friend used the system to find a new old stock Honda Pilot, the search said their was one in Iowa still in the crate he called the dealer and missed it by 2 weeks, the dealer sold it in the crate to a someone for 4200 bux out the door! It would be worth 10,000 to 12,000 on ebay today...

I suggest if you dont like what people are selling dont buy from them seek out what you need on your own, if your looking for Honda Yamahaha parts at better prices than Service Honda is giving call Hill Side Honda 707-263-9000 ask for "Trevor" and tell him "hoser sent me" and your with the Pilot-Odyssey group and want the "good guy" discount, they will beat service honda by about 10% the discount applies to all the stuff they sell not just OEM stuff, after market stuff like wiseco, FMF etc.

Hillside is kinda slow most the time they gotta order the stuff then a week later they get it then box it up and send to you, I am near Chicago and when I order something figure 2 weeks max to get it.

[edog]

This is good stuff.

Im with Hoser on this Tevor at Hillside Honda Ca supports my parts supply all the way to Australia,ive had numerous Pilot and 250r parts shipped to my door,sometimes in 5 days flat.He just got my '86 250r front and rear OEM fenders in really quickly !
Hey Hoser Trevor and i were talking about you the other day on the phone he said he grew up in your location.What do you think of Dennis's BAD500 ? im thinking of buying it and shipping it out to Australia

Cheers
Aussie

PS
Im back in on your site,its all good !

[dirtface]

Everyone knows Onestops in the lead on the 350x that's at $4630.58 on E-bay. He also won this one for $4200.00 the other day that isn't even close to stock or perfect, but is definately nice. Don't know how to post links, but here's the number (4593719997). I'm not poor, but I can't turn that kind of money over.:lol:

Ahhhhh Thats where he got the new OEM fenders, seat, tank, and garnish he is talking about in some of his other ads....Its states make him an offer for this new OEM stuff...When you read his ads he lists other things he has.

[Infinity Cycle Supply LLC.]

You must remember that my prices, well most of them are all under factory MSRP. Regardless of if you had a deal somewhere and you could get the stuff, to the general public it is cheaper. If I were to be doing it to make everything discontinued, I wouldn't be selling it at this point would I.

[Infinity Cycle Supply LLC.]

I really don't feel I am ripping anybody off to be honest, I used to put my stuff on as auctions and the stuff went so stupid High I started doing fixed price auctions so it wouldn't go that high. Look at the set of grips that I have on there for 19.99, thats a buy it now price, no look at other selling the same thing, people are bidding over 35 dollars, when they could of bought mine for alot less. People sometimes just get caught up in the bidding I guess. Everybody I have ever sold anything to on Ebay has been happy, look at the feedback. It is not like I am asking 800 dollars for a set of 350x plastics because you can't get them anymore, maybe we will not see another run of 250r plastics then do you think I will take my auctions down and want a but load like the 350x plastics go for, no they will stay the same as long as I have a large amount of them. Just helping people out, and it is not like ordering from a dealer, the stuff is in my possetion, you order I ship not I have to order it wait around it come in next day I send it bla bla. You don't order from me and in a day or two I write back OH SORRY THATS ON BACKORDER, I can't keep my site updated sorry. So keep all of that in mind before you say rude things.

[Infinity Cycle Supply LLC.]

made a dicision with the seller or they would not respond to me like the 350x in cali with the repainted everything who would not address it
