I tried to copy and paste the eBay vendor with no luck, sorry. I have bid on at least six different steering wheels over the past six months only to be outbid in the very last minute by private bidders when it involves this guy from Japan. Plus if you watch the bid history when it involves private bidders the activity is awful intense when you look at the amount of bids. 'example the blue spider'. I think it may be a way for these guy to post something for sale without putting a reserve on the item and try to create a frenzy to drive up the price....then in the end not actually sell the item?

Steve, where did you buy yours?

I wasn't comfortable with the steering wheel guy in Japan. I bought from joeyjag13 (ebay name) out of Ozone Park, NY. He offered a variety of sizes, the price was reasonable, shipping was fast and reasonably priced, and I was very happy with the steering wheel I received. He lists some of the smaller sizes as boat steering wheels, but they are all the same Momo bolt pattern. His ebay store is Joes Steering Wheels N Tachometers.

I got my Nardi Classic steering wheel, from *showcase* on eBay last March, and got it for a fair price ($120 I think). However for a Japanese seller, he sure does move a lot of used Nardi and Momo wheels.

The Japanese guy probably has them made in China and then he distresses them to look used. LOL
