E-Bay

Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed that the offerings of old parts gone down to very littel on e-bay lately. Also, the listings for classic and antique boats in in ACBS and Classic Boating Mag has shrunk from several pages of boats to just over a page. What gives?

Yes. It has kind of gotten frustrating for me. I have been looking for a few parts for my pre war 17 Deluxe. Windshield brackets, a gas cap and exhaust elbow.

I rarely go directly to eBay motors, as sometimes I have found worthwhile CC stuff outside of eBay motors. So I often search across all eBay sub-sites and do an advanced search, filtering out -ads, -postcards, -models, etc.

A year ago I would typically get 9-12 pages of listings. For about the past 3 months, only 4-5 pages.
