No one that I know of has ever sold a set (at least without the car too). I'm sure someone has, and maybe will chime in, but by-in-large owners keep them, not sell them.

So realize that any time you buy a set from an auction to save a buck (OK maybe more than a buck), you're very likely doing so at someone else's expense and probably encouraging future thefts, maybe even of yours.

Thieves wouldn't steal 'em if no one bought them.

When I was dealing in Boxes, I ended up with a set that I sold on craigs list. Otherwise, you are probably right.
