Default WTB: Stock Muffler

I have a GS4 that I'd like to bring back to stock. Does anyone have the stock mufflers (with the flange, bolt on), preferably within driving distance of NYC?

I have no idea, give me a price. I low-balled someone who sent me a PM - I really don't know what these go for used.

Not to be a jerk, but I really didn't know these were worth more then the dust they collect in most people's garages. I threw mine out after I put on my exhaust and didn't think twice about it. I mean, if I know I could sell them for $200+ I would have gotten a more expensive catback than I could afford when I changed them out. I don't want you thinking I lowballed you on purpose, I really didn't know what a used stock muffler is worth. Everyone keeps saying "from the dealer", but I don't think its fair to say that when throwing down prices on a used exhaust (you are in NY, and if the bottom of your car looks like mine, its seriously unfair to mention dealer prices). Anyway, can someone with a PRICE send me a PM?

the reason people mention the dealer price is because there really isn't much of a market place for used parts, rather than here on club lexus or ebay , available to the general public. so the buyers options maybe limited for the OEM part. new maybe all thats available so the price is relative.

with that being said, i use a general rule of thumb when buying or selling used parts of any kind. I will start with 1/2 of new price as a target buy/ sell price.

if an item is very close to original condition or if i can't tell a difference from new then i may go little higher when buying or selling.

on the other hand if the product looks used as h*ll, dirty and been kicked around the front yard, i will offer much less.

i was hoping to get $235.00 plus shipping for my pair. at least that is the reserve on my ebay listing ending today but i will sell them for whatever i can get for them. for more details and pics go to:
