This is why E-BAY is such a pain in the arse these days, people with nothing better to do than waste people's time and money. So what if he doesn't know what he's talking about, just ignore it, not basically cost him money because he doesn't know what he's got. This is what really pisses me off about E-BAY, it allows people to do this and get away with it. It's cost me a lot of money in fees over the last few months, and I've got nothing back from them because of people messing about. Grow up!

Why is he scamming? You can see exactly what they are and he's listed the tyre sizes as well.
So you're basically happy that when the auction ends he's charged between Ł60 and Ł70 because of you fooling about?

I bet you'd be really chuffed if someone did that to you!

So then, trevcos, why are you selling 2 cosworth and 2 mondeo wheels as genuine cosworth wheels?

Hilarious. Not. They're not mine. They're not all genuine Cosworth wheels, but you can see that from the pics and the description. No Escort Cosworth owner with half a brain would think they were the real thing. I still don't think that gives any of you the right to basically lose him money, which is what a lot of people have been doing to me on E-BAY recently. What exactly is the point, honestly haven't you guys got anything better to do?
I'd be bloody furious if I found anyone on here was doing that to me. I work hard for my money, for people just to basically throw it down the bog just for a laugh is just purile.

Gotta laugh at the people bidding! Are you guys aware that the only people to lose out here will be you? He'll be able to claim his fees back, and you'll receive an unpaid item strike, which will mean you wont be eligible to bid on items from certain sellers. (You can change your bidder requirements settings accordingly). More and more people are banning bidders with unpaid item strikes for this very reason.

It seems this guy has sold a few wheels/tyres/stereos looking at his feedback. Maybe he only got chance to get 2 off each car?
