Question

I notice in the last few months that there are many "newbies" posting large numbers of scoob parts for sale.

This makes me quite suspicious, ie have they just theived some bits, aquired them etc.. Also there seem to be dealers posting their cars on here... Dont think I would trust buying bits off someone with 1 post.

Any thoughts...

Strangely enough I agree, not that I'm not trusting or anything, but unless the person has been on the board for a while, or is known by another board member I would not run the risk.

Yeah, just look at that dodgy Rich B guy...obviously he just nicked that Tommy Kaira spoiler off some blind dude...
But seriously what can u do? It's scoobynet becoming a victim of its own success, just be careful out there.

So, following logic, Dave the Muppet, 3423 posts in 9 months must be trustworthy beyond belief.....
