dunno but single handedly he is causing us genuine enthusiasts to spend more time and money finding and buying new spares just so he can line his pockets.
he just orders as much as he can till ford have none them sells them on ebay, He even used to sell parts as rare when ford still sold them!!
rant over!

I think its fair play to him as he lists them well below retail from Ford it suprises me how much people bid the stuff up thou!
My only issue is when he lists stuff as NLA and it blatently is!
