If you've given the guy a couple of days to read your message and change his listing accordingly, inform eBay mate.

Seems like utter shite doesn't it... some punter can get stung for a few hundred sheet and as long as eBay get a taste of it they don't give a toss. Can't stand eBay anymore, far too many dodgy folk trying to off load their crap on there.

There are a few types of 909 shell mate so depends on what shell he has as to if he is wright or wrong

Sad isn't it?I've got two mates who just can't stop lying,not always White lies either,usually their about events that happened where people can't really check up on but recently I got embroidered in one myself.

I was in a mates Mot centre when it got raided by the police,me and another lad who was only there doing a hobble,the owner was nowhere to be seen.I'd only called in to borrow a heater for the paintshop and I'd seen the cops on the main road.
They raid it and were thinking,oh fuck!!!

Anyway,they do their checks and I'm free to go,only me and this other lad are there.

About two months after this,one of the liars starts telling me the story of how "his mates garage got raided".to save him making an idiot of himself I say "yes mate,I was there when it happenned,remember?".

I'd told him 10mins after I was released ffs,yet here he is going into great detail about how this boy he knew was there when it happened and the police had him on the floor in cuffs,how there were armed police there with laser pointed weapons and I'm just thinking"I've just told you I WAS THERE".

Few weeks later,other liar starts reverting the new "imaginary" story to me,explain again I was there but it falls on deaf years!apparently this time there were drug squad officers there who found a huge amount of drugs in a car (which wasn't even there!!!) and the owner was going to jail for 10 years!!!FFS I WAS FUCKING THERE!!

The guy never even got arrested,he went to the copshop and they cautioned him for two stolen bikes which in his defence he knew nothing about,got off with that and a joint of dope!!

Were not even sure if he lost his Mot licence as the garage is now an Mot centre albeit fuck all to do with him.

Paul, just "win" the item, then refuse to pay as its not as described .. There was a wanker trying to pass off Mondeo Si wheels as genuine Escort Cossie ones, even lied in a direct question to him... He soon took them off when they reached 50k

i dont own a 3 door,but when ever you look at cosworth parts on ebay it annoys me the amount of bits listed as rs500 parts when they are the same as 3 door parts but the seller thinks they may get more money if they stick 'rs500' next to the title,i.e rs500 gearbox,rs500 caliper,rs500 headlight.just the same so why pretend its not?

Q: Hi You have listed this item as an RS500 head , it isnt an rs500 head , they have dowel holes in the inlette on ports 1 and 4 this is a std head NOT and rs500 15-Nov-10A: Afraid I don't know what you mean so I can not comment. Did come off an Escort cosworth if that's any help, they have the same engine, so I'm told. Have posted the cast numbers asked for by another interested bidder perhaps these will help.

Surely that would make it a escort cosworth head!
