At that price you would take a loss..  You would have to average at least $1700 a block to break even..  That doesnt include man hours to inventory & advertise..  Not an investment I would consider if I had the money..

Buy with confidence!! How do the ebay ads have text that runs all over itself like that? It's annoying.

From the sellers other items, and all big blocks.  I believe this was for sale a few years ago from a different seller.

He is local and has been around for years, the highest prices in the us, even higher than paragon. If he has what you need, good luck. I was dumping my vette parts at a local swap meet and he walks up and asks how much for the bb water pump, I tell him $25, he says $15, I replied, I will throw it in the trash on the way out for that, he handed me the $25. I think I would have felt better watching him dig through the dumpster for it. All he is doing is using eBay for free advertising and getting out all of his casting dates and numbers in one place.
