Default Ebay rip off again

I dunno why but my previous post was deleted or moved as far as i can tell. Can any mod confirm where is it?

This has to be a mistake, like seriously he cant be asking £68 for accelerator cable delivered. Matt lewis does these for around £20 delivered FFS.

Yeah i know, i put a post up last week about him but it has dissappeared for some reason

I think its too expensive for ahyone to buy. Who in the right mind would buy that for £60. I think its too expensive for ahyone to buy.

Exactly im just trying to help some people out so they dont get ripped off.

Some people just take his word that parts arent available and pay whatever he wants for them when alot of stuff he is selling is still available from ford for alot less than what he is trying to sell it for.

i know alot of you think well if your stupid enough to buy it then its your own fault. But you would think you would try and help people on this site save money and continue to enjoy driving thier fords. Some people dont know to go check for for some stuff.

No need to rob people
