Default Robbing ebay barstewards

Stumbled across this tonight.

Subaru Impreza STI Clutch Flywheel Bolts 2003-2005 Set8 on eBay (end time 25-Jan-10 16:29:13 GMT)

£30 for a set of used flywheel bolts.

Bearing in mind you can buy them brand new from RCM for 84 pence each.

Just goes to show there's some proper robbing ***** out there!!!

they are proper robbing fools, i emailed them ages ago about a wing for a blobeye sti, after hearing the chap on the other end of the phone throwing a load of panels around he came back on "yeah mate got one its a bit damaged £150+ p&p" i duly brought a new one from from subaru at £110.

p.s they are not in Lichfield but somewhere up north cant remember where.
