    FS: @eBay - 68 Manual

    Seriously: Where do these people come from?

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/1968-PORSCHE...lVcQuQ&vxp=mtr


    The day a new manual is worth $3k+ (for the red-headed stepchild of 911's, no less) I will start selling off my stash.

    You have got to be kidding me. Marked down from $3,997.95 - you get to save almost $600! And he has 3474 reviews 100% positive. Looks like a nice original piece. Maybe he put that decimal point in the wrong place.

    Do tell. I'm just not up to speed with the whole "paper goods" market. When an expensive artifact shares its intrinsic elements with a product used to wipe oneself, it's difficult for me to get excited about it.

    Who is this seller?

    That's crazy. The payment plan for 24 months might be your best option Frank. And I am pretty sure that's not even the correct vinyl sleeve, but someone here could confirm.

    Well if a restored 68 911 normal sells for $400,000 then this manual is worth...... I hear this type of nonsense all day long these days.

    I was very interested in this item, but since I cannot tell, with any degree of certainty, if its been read or not, I'm afraid I'm going to have to pass. Oh, the horror of it. Hope I can sleep tonight.

    Looks like a dog took a bite out of that front cover then marked his/her territory. I am guessing the "Private Collector" was a dog lover.
