Kinda agree, but IMHO you should give your best price to start with, not have to try compete after a lower priced part has been sourced. It's like if you went to Kwik-Fit (if you were thick enough) and asked for 4 tyres. They give you a price and you tell them they're x amount cheaper round the corner... "oh we'll match that then Sir" 
Erm, no you won't, I'll **** off round the corner and get them from there instead.
Can you see my point in that?

I do see your point but, and I hope no one takes offence at this, I dont break motors for all the buyers benefit, I do it to make money. Say it costs me a grand for a facelift 99 turbo, thats a grand of parts I have to sell just to break even. Every part I sell has a mark up but it sometimes gets to a point where I have 3 of something so can afford to lower the price just to get rid.
I have a few good condition bumper bars atm, 20 quid each delivered. But if someone says can I sell them one for 15, well thats 15 in my pocket so yes Id sell it rather that say no and still have them all sitting. Others just say yes Ill take one for 20 quid.

i originally priced the turbo at £400 but then remembered i had the cost of the new forge actuator to make back but never got much interest off the add so didnt bother correcting !!! the price of £500 for the turbo was explained to
the op which he was happy with !!!!
if i get chance i will post his messages up here !! then we can see if you think he was being ripped off !!

With all due respect,,
If you needed the car why advertise the turbo before having another one to go on. I totally agree the guy should of called you and told you the situation, but at the end of the day 200 notes is 200 notes. If I saw an item 200 quid cheaper after telling you id have yours I know what I'd do. I would however have the ***** to call you and tell you the crack.
Also, £520 for a 34 is all the way anyway.

i was interested in this vf34 a while ago,and spoke to maz and he told me he cant remove the turbo from car as he needs it on the car so he can drive to the garage,(i needed it quickly).
anyway he let me know that unfortunetely wont be able to sell due to this problem,
fair enough.
as im a genuine buyer i decided to get in touch again to see if there were any other options to get around the problem as i quite fancied the vf34.
maz didnt get back to me.
maz....if you had taken it off the car when i spoke to you it would have been sold by now!
no offence mate but you could have just text me to say....defo cant sell.
and now i find out you have taken it off the car (that you needed) and tried selling!!!
wtf??
what a twist.......i agree maz, he should have let u know.
but you aint an exactly an angel in that department are you?
