I am not sure what you mean. What you are looking at is a front seat bolster assembly without the upholstery.

I think what he means is why in the heck is this thing currently going for $152 and some change. Seems a bit pricey to me too.

The fact that you listed it for only three days could be a factor. Look at the first three day's bids on your current listing. Not all that impressive.

Presentation is also a big factor. Most people are probably interested in the spring box. That's what they need to see. It's hard to judge the condition of the springs when the seat cover is installed.
