Default FECKING SCAMMERS, No turbo :(

Bought a turbo 9 days ago from a chap on flea bay "good feedback and all that) did the paypal thing for him to avoid fees but i paid the extra to cover myself thank god as its nowhere to be seen and all messages are being ignored! case opened and monies will be returned soon

My problem is i was going to get mapped tomorrow but havent got a turbo now Has anyone in the south yorkshire area got anything front entry with a 330-350 bhp rating ie vf28 34 35 or a tdo5 , if so give me a shout and i will collect it asap, cheers

Gutted, thank **** you paid the fees fella.

I've also had eBay problems this week but not quite to your value. I won a brake master cylinder with a cheeky 99p bid, low and behold the seller now says he can't find it. In other words he'd hoped it was gonna get a few bids and when it sold for 99p he wouldn't let it go.

I brought a item and now the bloke is being funny, called me an idiot as I said it shouldnt take 15days for dispatch when I paid for next day delivery. He then said he would take me!! To court for loss of earning as i expect him to send it! And now he is making me wait to last min as eBay have given him till the end of the month to sort the issue. I didnt check his feedback and he has done this before, I bid in my iPhone and it didn't tell me without looking about his background of being a ****.

Most of the hassle i have had on there as a seller in the past was mainly car parts or mobile phones, They must attract tossers!!
