IS THIS GUY A WASTE OF TIME OR WHAT.

he advertised a set of angel eyes for sale for £100 and a tenner for postage,

i paid him through payapl and he emailed me saying i will post them out within 7 days.

5 days went by i thought i will check up to see if he had posted them. so i called him and he said.

"i didnt post them, and i have refunded the money, reason being that your address did not show up with the paypal payment. and now i got the lights on ebay"

now if that was me i would of sent the buyer a pm telling them whats happening, but with this guy you have to chase him up, wait a few days hoping your lights will be here soon.

now i have bought something on ebay and made a payment and my address has always shown with the payment.

so, this guy thought he will refund me and try his luck on ebay to see if he can scrape a few more quid out of them. but what a shame they sold for £92 and £15 postage, so he has lost out by £3, and thats with him increasing the postage cost by £5 :roll:

so basically the guy is full of SH!T

it takes the piss though, your waiting and waiting for your item then you get bad news after you chase him around. especially if you needed the item urgently

I'm annoyed that he wouldn't sell me his traction control at £30 even though he was tempted to, because it then sold at £200 on the bay. I was waiting to take a very quick £170 profit and he ruined it :o Bastard! :)

:lol: I was about to buy his 'purplemtec' off him a year ago when it was advertised for 995, but could tell the way he spoke and described the car that it wasn't worth the hassle, I'm glad I never went up there!

IIRC it's been advertised a couple of times for silly amounts?

Well i tell you what i got the bargain of the century from this guy. He advertised a m tech 1 spoiler with boodlid and i sent him a pm. He said he wanted £40 for quid so i thought ok. Got back to him 2 days later and he said its now on e-bay make your bids on there. I thought wha da fa i was giving you asking price for it. Anyways i put in a £30 bid and decided that was my highest. The auction started at 99p and yes finished at that!!!!!! Drove down to sheffield picked up the bootlid gave him a quid and walked away.
