Weight is the only downside. But alot cheaper than the PPG gearset I originally had in mind. I'll strip everything out and do Santa Pod in just my bundies come next year.

Jon . No need to be as drastic as stripping down to the bundies just need some simple weight saving . Lending me those Porshe calipers might be a good start(Being ur best mate an all) Some of those t25 suspension mods must be pretty weighty too. I am sure we can find them a home on my car.

Playing the detective. PC bluerigster
1060 quid off eBay!!!!, I new it was too good to be true. After seller not wanting to accept Paypal I though not to worry I'll send a cheque either way I'm covered by eBay. Great, he doesn't accept either as he is getting devorced and prefers if the soon to be ex wife dosen't know of any extra money. He wants me to transfer money using Western Union in which it self costs 10% of the total amount transferred and to top it all off it's not traceable and eBay will not allow for payment using this method. So when mentioning I'm not happy as he has zero feedback he offers me another way, a fake escrow service shipping company's information. If you haven't guessed yet I'm starting to get a little concerned, so not one to lose out on a bargain even if the guy is a little dodgy. I email him to say I'll collect the goods over the weekend, oddly enough he is not able to arrange collection but sends his address to arrange for another day. Being in investigator mode I check the address it's a taxi company in Forfar Scotland. I track the number and give them a call, asking the gentleman who answers if he has heard of Mr D Stichk and whether there is any flats above or behind the taxi office, answer NO. I kindly email Mr D Stichk back with my findings and all has gone quiet. To top it all of I've contacted all other eBay members who bidded on the item telling them that he is a scammer and informed the police and eBay. Don't buy anything from Mr Dave Stichk, eBay id chk_0095. Well that should stop him ripping anyone else off for a while, until the b@r$tw@rd changes his name any how.

****, That would of been a good buy, bloody scammers
I wouldn't buy anything of someone on ebay with less than 30 feedbacks, Unless they were local and could go nad see the thing. I always read the feedbacks to make sure they arn't just cd's or bits of grass.
Always use Paypal, The most I spent on ebay was £1K on a watch, but I paid by credit card direct to the company just to be on the safe side.

I had the same problem with a new mobile i was trying to buy, very suss
In the end got one offf a guy on here
Wont buy anything off ebay unless lots of sales and near 100% feed back.
If items are sold through e bay, ebay should at least protect the buyer.
Not a help to you with your box though , what a waste of your time.

Gutted, thought it was a bit cheap, seen loads of people trying on scams like this in the last few months, especially when i was looking for my Apline DVD Screen.
Have seen where people have built up feedback selling thing's for 1p to loads of another 0 feedback members (probably to themselves registered under loads of different e-mail addresses)
Have also seen where someones account has been hacked, there was a guy who was a lock specialist (all he sold was padlocks etc). Then he had a load of one day auctions for very expensive electrical goods at a 1/4 of there value and in the listing it said to contact via e-mail (not the ask seller a question) on contacting him he only excepted Western Union, but on the guys genuine listing for locks he excepted Paypal.
Have also seen a link in a listing which is suppost to take you to the "sellers shop" but when you click on it you get sent to a fake Ebay log-in screen (looks almost identical to Ebay but the address isn't a secure https, just an IP address). Obiously some sort of password grabber.
Have to be careful on ebay these days there r so many scammers on there and ebay just don't seem interested, i reported one of these problems to ebay and they sent it back to me saying i'd sent it to the wrong department. They get listing fees for all the these fake listings so i suppose there happy.
