Prices have gone beyond ridiculous into the realm of stupidity.

dont think it matters either way.  its worth what someone pays for it.  if it doesnt sell then he will be forced to lower the price.

Wow :o
  It's not even NOS. I thought prices for 70 Challenger grill pieces were crazy, but this enlightens me. I'm sure he's hoping for a rich guy who doesn't care about money, but realistically, he has to come down to earth on that price.

That's pretty bad.
At first I thought the seller was MTYMOPR from the Charger board, but it's not. The Charger guy lives in Calif, the Egouge guy lives in Tenn.

I doubt anyone will bid & he'll re-list at a lower price.

Keep your eyes on it. It wouldn't surprise me if it went for 30% more. Sadden me - yes, but not surprise.

Simply put Supply & demand , a lot of these cars are now in the hands of millionaires if they need a good grille $$ is no object , & find another one , very difficult to do , I`ll bet it goes for more than 3K
