[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 4073220, member: 15054"] I would have never believed that sometimes people think if something costs more that it is better than the same thing costing much less. I had dozens of TH350 transmissions and decided to rebuild some and sell them. New BW clutches and seals and new steels. rebuilt converter and front pump and shift kit. 2 year 25,000 mile warranty whichever came last . Not 1 call and I posted it in the bargain post many decades ago. My dad said it's too cheap double the price. I raised my price by 100 bucks and I had to remove the add as I could not keep up with people wanting those transmissions. I built dozens of 5x12 utility trailers for some spare change and priced them $100 over my cost. I had bums show up and try to jew me down on them. I removed the add and waited 2 weeks and put the add back in and for 200 more than my cost. I got a different customer base. Suit and tie type guys with new shiny trucks that did not jew me down at all. Funny how that works. [/QUOTE]
