Car Cover 986 - Wolf Automotive

My car came with 2 covers and I would like to sell the extra one. I am not sure what it cost new. If I understand Wolf's website, a comparable one is +/- $230.00 new. It looks to be in good condition and I can't find any rips or tears in it. It could probably use a wash.
I am thinking it is worth +/- $45.00. I am in southern California. Shipping via USPS or UPS would be reasonable. I think it weighs about 10 lbs. I have additional pictures of all sides when necessary.

Obviously, the OP should answer your question, but I will chime in here. It looks similar to the Evolution 3 fabric used in a cover I had on another car a few years back. If it is the same, it's waterproof to a point. Basically it sheds water at first, but then as it becomes saturated in a heavy or steady rain, it begins to allow water through, but does not allow dirt or dust through.

If you don't take it, I'll throw my name in as second dibs!!

I just sprayed the hose on it and it easily sheds water. But I suspect leftfield6 is correct and it would become saturated after several hours of steady rain. I don't think it would dry very well in a residential dryer. It would probably require a trip to the laundromat for a commercial size dryer.

I have several people interested in it. I believe leftfield6 has first right of refusal. I have several private messages and I am still learning how to navigate between posts and PM's. If I am in error, somebody please correct me.

I will try to communicate with leftfield6 via PM and conclude the deal. Thanks for every bodies interest.
