when did 1pc lights become so expensive?

[xaaronx]

seriously, wtf. maybe i'm behind, but i remember joining up on here and seeing them for about $200 shipped on average. shit, i couldn't even sell my 2pc jdm lights for $230 shipped a year ago. now people are trying to get ~$300 for 1pc lights?


did i miss a memo?

[buckysaccord93]

1pc headlights are what everyone wants now no one wants the two piece

[DJ metadelic]

you didn't miss a memo, just didn't care enough about a trend obviously. which i don't either so i can understand lol. who cares 2pc 1pc no pc 50,498pcs, i could give two of my own shits you silly children and your aftermarket obsessions..

[MikeW]

But Noah....1pc arent aftermarket....

[xaaronx]

...i think you guys missed what i'm saying. i'm not complaining about my 2pc lights not selling for more (even though they are rarer than the 1pc), i'm saying when did the price of 1pc jdm lights SKY ROCKET? if you look back barely a year ago to threads on here, you'll find numerous sale threads with them for ~$200 shipped. now kids are trying to get $300 and more sometimes?

Supply and demand

Couple years back it was all over this site and ebay for the lower price.

Now that most importers aren't getting access to the accords as much the price of some parts gone up..

Authentic G-square grills were going for 300+ before. Now there below about $250.. the price went down now since there has been replicas. so the demand went down.

It happens!

Rare doesn't mean value

see, i simply don't believe in supply and demand with these lights. i believe some idiots saw some overpriced lights on ebay and thought they could get that amount so they upped theirs too. so everyone else started charging the like amount.

i will never pay around 300 bucks for a set of jdm lights. that's just ridiculous.

Rare doesn't mean value

well, that is the name of the jdm game. rarity. you're not going to dish out 200+ bucks for a set of USDM or CDM lights+corners. but again, i'm not complaining about my lights that have been long gone.

[cb7pr]

I paid $150 for set of light back 2 yrs ago...the cleanest set Ive ever seen. I can understand the rise, somewhat, but $300 is just too much money. Good Luck to those who try, but thats just overpriced.

[F22HB]

Only so many sets around, plus the fact that everybody wants jdm now. If people didn't pay 300 they wouldn't be selling for 300. I shoulda gotten a set back in the day.

[jimy]

Some one will buy it. Even if it isn't you. The demands there.
