OEM seat prices higher on ebay than dealer?
So i noticed something strange as i was looking for a solo touring seat. Why are used seats so higher when you can buy them new. Am i missing something.

secondly, whenever you stick 'cvo' in front of a part, the seller thinks that means that it is a restricted sale item and therefor they can charge a premium for it.

couple things, the seat that you linked to ebay vs the seat that you linked on the hd site are not the same seat. the p&a seat you linked is all vinyl. the cvo seat in the first ad is leather with vinyl sides. a better comparison would be the black cvo seat from the 2012 roadglide that runs msrp $388. still, new is $11 cheaper than the used item here.
