just put an offer for a gear knob from a guy in jersey as always got out bid and then as usual got a second chance offer (has happened to me and a few mates all the time with this guy) the question is should i report him to ebay as it seems very dodgy,dont want to be a grass but hate getting ripped off.

 

umm i think its prob the bloke that deals in loads of new cossie bits so will prob have more than 1 available

 

think your right mate , changed his user name recently , used to be cosworth shop
had some stuff off him , also got ripped with some utter shite 2nd hand junk
would never buy from him again !
and as you say you always get outbid @ last minute

john

 

he may be getting some mate's to knock the price up

 

Shill bidding ?? you wont be the last..Yeh it is crap sometimes but its what some people do,admitedly i have done it on vehicles so they don't go for nothing for my mates but we don't take the piss.

 

to many people on ebay do that second offers its suspose to be an auction not a buy it now price if auctionedwhy dont they except the end result thats what it is rufly worth

 

the guy in jersey is called david,he is expensive but his stuff is as described so you know what you are getting,i have bought loads and loads of stuff from him and never had a problem.i bought a new 4x4 bonnet and it came damaged,the post office paid out and he sent a new 1 and let me keep the damaged 1.he also goes by the name of rs-auction or cosworthshop.he sources most of his stuff from spain.usually his auctions are buy it now.i once bought a gearknob for my 1st cossie as it had a mallard green insert,it came but it wasnt the 1 i needed but that was my fault for not looking at the ad,and i got another for my friend with a moonstone insert and that was perfect.
