Default Fooking Ebay and the Stupid Mo'fo questions you get!!!!!!!!!

Try and sell something on Ebay and you can guarantee you'll get the stupidest of fucking questions, makes you wonder whether it's worth it!!!

E.G. Tonight: Question from seller "hi just wondered if u had a turbo for escort rs cab 1988"

I'm selling an RST starter motor on there! I don't mind being asked if i've got other RSturbo stuff, it's just the whole 1988 Escort RS cab!!! Wtf is all that about????

Anyone else knew Ford made a turbo'd Taxi!!!

What fucks me off about replies is when you want to bid on something but the seller don't list the postage cost. So you email and email and email and email and they never bother replying so you never know what the postage is gonna be

i know it was about the questions, but you do get some tw@ts, and i second that about postage cost, you dont want to bid in case they want to much for postage then you get neg feedback cos you dont want it.
and whats with the "will not post, collection only"???? why dont the lazy tw@ts just post it, all the people that wont post dont seem to get bids, or goes cheap as know one wants to know.

Dave

Not one single escort cabriolet left the factory with a turbo lump, but the Mk3 escort had an "all white" edition with the same body spec of the S1 with the kit/lights/bumpers/interor/s1 alloys etc..............

As with the Mk4 "all blue" edition this had the kit/vented bonnet/recaros/s2 alloys etc...............
