Thanks lawdog! I believe the purchase price is the original MSRP, but I'm not sure.
konarider, I mentioned earlier that I have another race pipe on the way, and that one is practically new with no dents or blemishes. That one has a polished finish, and I'm into it for about $500. I thought that was a good deal as well considering the condition. I'll probably end up reselling that one, although I do like that finish better.
I think I've just been fortunate to stumble across two pristine examples. Most of the ones I see are pretty beat up and sell for less.
