Vent-Ports - Value?
« on: December 21, 2011, 09:05:21 PM »
Need some input on what a very decent set of venti-ports is worth.
Thanks!

Mark,

I've seen them range anywhere from $50 - $150 a side (depending on condition).

The prices over the last five years have been insane and this seems to be one of those parts that sell better in the Spring time.  I personally don't see anyone reproducing them and one way to look at it is that they only made around 15,000 sets (plus spares for parts inventory) and Lord only knows how many are left.

Just my two cents

Chris,

Yea, the prices are kind of nuts because some of the GS specific parts are getting pretty tough to come by. Let's face it, even some of the stuff common to Skylarks are hard to find. I'm probably going to sell them, but need a ballpark estimate of value. I don't see these come up for sale very often.
