It would help if I read all the detail in the ads

It must be that expensive because it fits soooooooooooooo many vehicles

Typo

User IDPrice Quantity Date of Purchase
private listing -- buyers' identities protected £108.99 126-Nov-12 07:30:47 GMT
private listing -- buyers' identities protected £98.09 122-Nov-12 11:07:22 GMT

private listing -- buyers' identities protected £108.99 128-Sep-12 15:33:17 BST
Could be a crafty typo though, people have been caught upping the price buy a ridiculous amounts in the hope they mug someone for their hard earned!

not a fuck up, obviously doesn't have any left and rather than somebody buying the last 1 and the listing ending, you put the price so high that nobody buys it, and then when you get more in stock you put the price back to normal.

That's exactly it, everyone doesn't as the adverts dot end, so if they end them then relist they pay fees again... Look at the 4 sold, £108 etc

It has a bar & plate core the same as mine thats why its expensive. My core alone cost over £400 & is a lot smaller than that. Dont knock things you know nothing about. Just because you guys are happy with inferior cores others like me arnt.
