ah he gave me the reason, but i dont believe it unfortunately. He had 4 days to get in touch or to text me - he had my number and it takes 2 minutes to phone, or 30 seconds to text.

I stayed in today waiting for him, and its all for nothing. I cut him a good deal on the engine, loom, ancillaries, gearbox and the ECU too, but he just sounds like another messer. Its on ebay anyway with 14 watchers, so we will see how it goes i guess! Im glad i didnt withdraw it from ebay now!

oh well, roll out the messers on ebay i guess!

Tell me about it, then you get people who will not sell you stuff because you won the bid, they had no reserve, but they were looking for more money.

I've just won some porsche wheels, and he adds 45quid for postage, yet his ad said in big letters buyer can collect anytime including work hrs, i mailed him twice, s55hole hasnt replied!! :x

you do pick up good buys on ebay, and there is good and bad sellers/buyers. just be careful mate. not much to worry about if your a seller other than timewasters.
