Well apparently the threat of a lawsuit got through to them. They pulled the ad.
And, someone just bought the car through Ebay for my Buy-It-Now price. So, it looks like this day's turning out okay after all....

I sold my Corvette on there about 3 years ago, and ended up getting $2000 more than I was asking for it.

I think it costs like $40 to list, and I paid a $40 final value fee. Probably $90-100 once you figure in reserve price fees and such. But, I just factored that into my reserve.
There aren't a lot of GTI's on there:

I should be able to get at least $15k, at least. If not, I won't bother getting rid of it.

glad to hear everything worked out man.
btw - upgrading your ground wires has a huge impact on your electrical system. i'm not going to say it helps your car run faster, but it does help with dimming and other electrical problems
