CSL Bootlid price increase?

[Norocehcap]

Well it's been a loooooooong road but it's finally over. OE CSL trunk ordered from ECS on May 14th 2020 for $1189.95 arrived today June 18th 2021. ECS stuck to there word and never cancelled my order or asked me for more money, huge props to ECS! Im soooo glad I didn't cancel the order, so who wants to buy it for $2900???? JK it's not for sale.

Man if I can find this trunk for 1600 or 1800 I will buy 2. but 3k Idk yet that's a big gap

3k is too much. Even $1800 is too much but I would pay that.

A few days ago my order status changed to "boxed" and today the status changed to "shipped" however I have not received a tracking number yet. Looks like these trunk lids are FINALLY getting out to us over a year later.... Thanks covid...

If these trunks return to production, which I doubt, what happens to the pricing? Will we see sub $1200 pricing again? Or has this forever changed the cost.

If supply increases prices will drop all-else-constant. It's certainly possible that if more units flood the market more buyers will show up which will reintroduce upward pressure on prices. It's tough to say, the uncertain factor to me would be demand and how many people still need these things and would be willing to buy if prices were lower.

The shipping date of 6/9 came and went yesterday with no update from ECS. The order status is still showing "picked." I will update here when I get another update from ECS.

Why would you pay that when you could cop an old used painted one sitting in dog doodoo in someone's backyard for $500 more?

I didn't, I paid $1189.95 from an order placed May 14th 2020.

Edit... 2 hours later and I just got the joke

Got a price alert from ECS Tuning as well. It's at $3048 for the lid.

The price is crazy, this morning it was $4049 but looks like they have lowered it by $1000.

My order at ECS has changed from "status: product inbound" to "status: picked" so I think these trunk lids are finally getting caught up in production and getting shipped out.

just kidding, lack of knowledge for me on stocks is why I don’t, I like car parts instead haha
