Bet they were surprised that the starting bid never got a bite when in times past it would have been bid up to the stratosphere. They now relisted it with the starting bid being the but it now price of 49.95 with shipping of 11.33 for a 41,000 mile ujoint (unless it was Al's in which case who knows the mileage
)
Who wants to tell them they are now available again new??

They are making new U-Joints? I apparently don't read enough posts on the tech board.

They're available from Honda and people have been posting about getting there's that have been on backorder, so I believe the days of pinwall gouging on them is abated at least for the time being.

I've only bought one item from Pinwall and it was junk (something I wouldn't put on my nice bike)....as I believe most of their stuff is. The high shipping charges also negate any savings and in most cases I believe you're better off buying new. I wouldn't put crappy parts on my bike, especially since I plan to keep it forever.
Some really like Pinwall but they must not be too picky about condition...YMMV

You should see the spare throttle cable I bought from them. The housing is mashed and the plastic coating is burned off on about half of it. No mention was made of this in the discription. I guess they figured that I wouldn't throw a fit about it.
They were right. I'll just be more careful about anything I buy from them.
