Some of my favorites are:
1. Steering wheel spinner with crooked logo
2. Peep mirrors and other generic parts
3. Card holders, lighters, wallets, etc., with a Hudson logo stuck to it.
4. Filthy, used and pitted parts.

One of my biggest peeves is guys who photocopy eight pages and tell you its a Hudson manual and want $15 for it.

Or guys like this selling an obviously damaged brochure it looks like crap and he says folded three times but does not affect it in any way. I paid $20 for my pristine unfolded brochure. And to add insult to injury he wants what is the top price for a perfect copy of this brochure.

Or guys who list a complete car and say hey its complete and a rare example of an old Hudson so it will be good to hotrod and destroy its value.

I sent an email to the seller of a 49-50 Hudson hood ornament which was actually from a DeSoto. It was funny, when the seller was describing the item and said, "Hudson's face has a little chip on it." Obviously didn't pay attention in history class.

This guy here is a comedian look at the price he wants for this banged up piece of junk. Who is he kidding. I don't see anyone lining up to buy anything for a 56, not the manuals and certainly not the cars. Some people live in hope or are grossly misinformed.

OMG...$199.00! This is either a mistake or the seller's brain is banged up too! A perfect example of people who think that just because something is old, it's worth a bundle. I wonder if he/she sold their grandparents for that reason. Sheesh!

Here is another joker. This brochure is in what we call $5 condition and this guy thinks someone is going to pay $49.88 in a BIN. This is the second time he posted it on ebay and I wonder why. Even in the pictures it looks in poor condition and the statement its folded in 3 but does not affect it in any way made me laugh for quite a while.

Forget the BIN price, the starting bid is ridiculous. If this guy somehow pulls this one off, I'm done putting trash out at the curb. Instead, I'll sell it on ebay.

I love these idiots this guy is the new top of my list. This is available from Faxon for around $25 bucks. I have a Faxon and an original. I paid 20 bucks for the mint original. Look at this fool.

It's the old, "If it's old, it must be worth a fortune" mindset. Lots of time wasted on preparing a listing for something that will not sell. Who will be the first to contact the seller and tell them how stupid they are?
