How are you this dumb lol.

Core costs 3250$ cheapest on eBay. let's do the math ill break it down for you.

if the build costs 2300 + shipping of 300$ each way + oil 250$ you are at 3150$ before taxes.

what is 3150$ + 3250$?

6400$

How am I asking for a premium you lowballer?
Not if you send them your transmission. You keep forgetting that. Use your transmission and itā€™s half. How do you not understand??? The heatwave is really getting to you.

i offered you my stock trans on top of the cash, not because I thought you were a shop, but because itā€™s easier to sell a working stock trans for $1.5-2k itself to recoup some money. Plus the $3500, you would end up with $5-5.5k in the end. But you obviously canā€™t think that way.
We are going in circles, it's simply not for you. Thanks for checking. AGAIN. I think the heat wave got to you more than it did to me. Or you have some sort of dyslexia TRY reading and understanding I DO NOT NEED A CORE. I am selling as a WHOLE UNIT no CORE NEEDED. If that's something you are interested in by all means, if not sit and wait for a "deal" like you probably did on the entire build.

Happy labor day, I'm sure there will be some banging deals!!

you are 100% right, the lesson learned. LOL no one is crying you're just a lowballer. The end of the story "go find a deal" is probably why your transmission is stock till today. Couldn't find a deal..
im fine with my stock transmission. Car runs perfectly fine with it. Not looking for a deal, just a reasonable price.

the fact that you are losing money on the core doesnā€™t make that trans worth more.

If you think Iā€™m lowballing, answer me this: can I get a jacks 750 transmission for $3500 if I send them my transmission?

Sure you can. Never said you can't, You're just having a very hard time understanding or grasping the idea that a core is included, Why would I take your core? You can sell your core and recoup the money. Why do I need to go the extra steps? That is why AGAIN IT IS NO CORE NEEDED. BUILT TRANSMISSION READY TO DROP IN.

We know you donā€™t need a core. But you price that transmission with an extra $3k (which is like a core price).
we get it, you invested $7k on the trans, butā€¦ā€¦whatever. Donā€™t matter. You ainā€™t selling that sh!t anymore unless you find someone that lives under a rock.

Whatever you say lowballer. Go find a deal or stay stock as it seems.

So what price are you looking for OP? Because this all seems quite unnecessary.

5 pages that wouldnt have existed if you just typed 5700 OBO

Realistically though, I don't think that things gonna move when you're still charging 89% of what you paid for it. Thats quite steep for something you're just trying to get rid of. I think people would be way more keen if it was in the 4800 ish range

People must love me when I sell stuff. New in box or not, if not coming from the original source, it is not new, it is now used. I tend to knock off 20%-30% off the price I paid, just to move it.

Speaking about the transmission, new to the Supra world. I assume the guys mentioned in here are top notch, but, would they even warranty a transmission for someone other than the original buyer?

I know when I built transmissions, it was warrantied for the original buyer.

When I'm selling shit, I just want it gone. So I'm with you there.

Jack's is top-notch (well, second to the top, but that's arguable). I'm not sure if they're going to warranty after it's been re-shipped, installed, sold, etc. It'd be worth reaching out to them.

So what I've gathered is if you're not willing to have an extra transmission just hanging out then you're not a baller.

By virtue of having two built transmissions OP is balling out of control. He's decided to take pity on the poors by offering them a chance to be half as balling as he is. Unfortunately, all the poor lowballers are just too stupid to realize how magnanimous OP is being.

On a serious note very curious of the 'deal' OP got on his pure transmission and if it included a core or not. What price made him disregard his existing build vs just paying the 6k for the build to start with. Sounds like he's ok getting a deal but not giving one.
