That's the same guy I just had tell me his eBay wasn't current and that he no longer had them in stock. Something seems kind of fishy with this guy.

I appreciate you looking though, thanks!

The search continues, hopefully I don't have to settle for my #2 choice - Black V&H Competition Series.
well... here's another option

Hey Vic you should check out Martin Bros Pipes.There are a few sets that look very similar to the Hookers you want for about the same money.They have a good reputation and make a good set of pipes.For a intake you should check out Alloy Art they have a moto intake which IMHO would look sick on a bones.Its simple but looks cool as hell.They also make quality parts.I dont see to many bikes with these parts so it would look pretty original as well.And you will also be getting top quailty parts.As far as the Velocity stack goes I was looking into getting a chrome Roland Sands one as well.I to was worried about the filtration.Arlen Ness makes a cover for a 2 " stack that goes right over the top of it.Kind of kills the beatuy of it though.Just use it for when you are riding. When you park it or want to show it just take it off.As long as the Sands stack is a 2" stack it should work fine.If it fits I think I will be changing my intake to a Roland Sands Stack as well

Checked out Martin Bros. I think a set of WTFS with heat wrap on them would probably look pretty pimp. The Ghettoblasters are pretty nice too, but I'd have to see thim on a Crossbones to know if they are for me.

If I can't find a set of the Fourbiddens they may just do the trick, thanks Malingerer.

I think if you just cut and paste it it should work, no? Either way, Google's not that difficult for me to punch a name into, I appreciate it either way.

Those Alloy Art A/Cs aren't too bad looking, what really caught my eye was those brass hand grips. If I didn't love my H-D Nostaligia grips I'd be picking up a set of those babies fo' sho.

That's strange. I've bought a few times from him on ebay with no issues. I guess that I was just lucky it was small stuff.

Yeah, when he emailed me to tell me I was out of luck he offered me a 15% discount off anything else he had in stock that I ordered to "make up for it." Considering I was willing to pay a 100% markup over MSRP on a set of pipes I guess he figured I was just going to say "sure send me one of everything." I don't really see anything else on his site that I'm all that interested in putting on my ride at this point. I'm debating whether or not to ding him with negative feedback on eBay or not. If it was an honest mistake I'm not really the type to jam it to someone, and to his benefit at least he replied the next day to let me know the mistake instead of leaving me sitting here waiting for my pipes for weeks before coming clean about it.

I did send him an email letting him know that in addition to the three sets of pipes he has for sale on eBay that he doesn't have, he also has 10 sets on the other site. I wonder if he'll even bother to respond?
