Guest Posted December 24, 2003 definately, you didn't miss much mate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crazymarcel 0 Posted December 24, 2003 Yep true guys, It was gettin hard to justify the price to myself, especially as there wearnt even any pictures to show ya what your buying and the bloke wouldent answer my emails asking how much postage would be on them. Its amazeing though how much parts for corrados go for on ebay. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted December 24, 2003 Its amazeing though how much parts for corrados go for on ebay. That's because the sellers play on it's relative rarity. The First Aid Kit and triangle a classic example. Both are still available from the dealer! Who ever uses either, anyway? K Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crazymarcel 0 Posted December 31, 2003 Does this sound shady to anyone else or just me? Four days after this auction finished (27/12/03) i was sent the ebay second chance email, kinda one the seller will send to second highest bidder after the initial winning bidder messed him about. After two of these emails i have since recieved an email of the winning bidder saying he had already bought and purchased them and would i like to buy them off him. To me this sounds as if they are playing the ebay system by getting his mate to outbid everyone for the item thereby finding out how much everyone else is prepared to pay and then offering to the second highest bidder (the real highest bidder). The sellers email address does not work and only has 1 feedback, while the winning bidder who came out of nowhere with no feedback to win the item and managed to pay and pick the items up and then decide he dint want them all within four days, christmas weekend at that. Also by haveing the no feedback winnning bidder offer me them, i have no guarentee if i sent him the cash/cheque i would ever recieve anythin, it doesent go through ebay, so no compo or action from them. Started thinking more theres no pic for the item, so does it even exist, with a full leather interia it would have to be picked up and they couldent have that, so by selling Fake leather doorcards which were posted. Makes things easier. This deal seems so dodgy to me, Ive told them where they can stick there doorcards. Just thought i would warn people on here incase they try it again. Of coarse it could be all soo innocent but theres tooo many shady points to this. There ebay usernames are: simonarthur (seller) juskalsi (buyer).

dr_mat 0 Posted December 31, 2003 I'd agree that sounds dodgy as anything. Report the buyer - he'll get his account suspended for offering to sell you an item outside of an ebay auction. In fact, report the whole thing, ebay might be able to find out if it was in fact the same person doing the selling and bidding. (Might have used the same IP address for example.)

crazymarcel 0 Posted December 31, 2003 Have reported the whole thing too ebay, hopefully they can identify his ip address and ban/suspend him or somethin. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmn 0 Posted December 31, 2003 i was bidding on those too, I thought that since mj will charge 300 for your own cards it wasnt worth it! Or just buy some lhd ones from Germany and get them modded, for €50 it wouldnt be a bad move!! Very sust, i mailed the seller, but he didnt respond!

dazzyvr6 0 Posted December 31, 2003 was this the original sellers e mail address mailto:[email protected] ??if so he had them up for sale on pvw for £150,i asked about them but they were from an early corrado,he even sent me some pictures but i must of deleted them Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crazymarcel 0 Posted December 31, 2003 That sounds like the one, apoligies if i have slandered him or anything. I take it all back he probley has got some, still think a "friend" was pushing the price up on them, even more happy i got nothing to do with them if they from an earlier corrado. He had them advertised as 92 corrado skins and no pics and no response to emails Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmn 0 Posted December 31, 2003 He had them advertised as 92 corrado skins and no pics and no response to emails That was exactly what i was annoyed about, but he was at btopenworld on ebay, i got a bounced mail back Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crazymarcel 0 Posted December 31, 2003 ok so i'm wrong and apoligise The doorcards were sold but new owner of them was drunk when bidding does not want them now and was useing the original seller to get my email address.
