FOR SALE: New Carburetor for 1972 BMW 2002

[braceface]

Price: $250

Location: Echo Park, Los Angeles CA 90026

Description:

Hi - A mechanic that was working on my car mistakenly purchased a new carburetor for my '72 2002 and unfortunately couldn't return it (long annoying story).  Anyone need one?  Brand new in the box.

Did you mean a down draft carburetor? Pictures and specs would generate a lot more genuine interest. 

All the best

Unfortunately I did not order this myself so I don't have specs.  Picture below.

If it’s in the box, the model(specs) will be on the box.

Can you take a picture of the linkage and the bottom of the carb?

Is there a model number that you can see on the side that's not pictured (see the yellow box in my attached pic). Perhaps DG__-____

Is it a plain white box?

so you know, it is a knock-off of a weber 38/38 and can be bought for 1/2 or less that your asking price from a host of retailers

 

i have 2 of them and people will frown because they aren't genuine weber but i've got a lot of life from mine and never any problems

 

i suspect your shop doubled your the price over what he paid

A repair shop that didn’t sell a replacement part at cost. Shocker. 

[braceface]

It is not a Weber.  I paid $250 for it. I'd like to get $250 back in sale.  I did not purchase it myself, but I paid the guy for it.  He screwed up in that I didn't need a new carb so now I'm stuck with this thing.  I'd tell you the whole aggravating story but it is so lame I prefer not to relive it.  If no one needs this thing I'll chuck in my parts bin.  Thanks.

I paid $250 for it so that's ok, the thing is I didn't need a new carburetor to begin with so now I have this thing I don't need.  Hoping someone may want/need it so that's why I posted it for sale.  I agree if you're ok with not having the Weber name they do work fine.  If I got screwed even more with the $250 price man...  I'm happy to let it go for whatever is fair.  I'd like to put this saga to bed soon haha.
