Anyone know about Wilshire oil?, I had a quart can which I thought was scarce and put on ebay at only $9.99 and no interest, can is full. Pulled the ad from lack of interest. I know it had condition problems but never seen this can and thought it was scarce and would at least get that much.

In my opinion Wilshire is a tougher sell because not that many people know about it. They are more familiar with the Polly brand, which of course has a much more colorful logo and identification.

Also I think that oil can prices on the whole are in the tank with the exception of the rare or interesting logo cans (pictures of cars, planes, birds, boats, etc.).

That's just my two cents, but what do I know?

Offer it up for offers on here first, we wont hesitate to tell what we think. I would offer it here first anyway. I wont sell on ebay anymore.


Could have been 7 bidders waiting to snipe at the end.. now you dont know.. start it at what you want or use reserve.

dodogas is right, most serious bidders wait to the last possible second to bid. I would never end an auction early, you never know who is waiting to bid. RD

I've got some WILSHIRE [blue & white] cans of radiator flush & tire paint, and can't sell them for $5ea at the swap meet or Gas Bashes.
TOO PLAIN.
