Title: Ebay antics
Post by TheBoy on 16. Aug 2006 at 20:42

bleeding crook!

Someone bought a car on ebay.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4651166464

Now he's selling it on ebay using the same photos description etc but with a tiny difference – check the mileage – he must have been reversing a lot !!!

Strange but he must have been caught out because…

“The seller ended this listing early because the item is no longer available for sale”

That is shocking! How do people think they can get away with it?

I believe the stats are that 1 in 4 cars is clocked. Alas, for us, is that Omegas are one of the worse - the cars easily eat big miles without showing the strain, coupled to how easy it is to do on Omega, make it an easy target.

Clocking - what a pants thing to do, I look upon mileage as a badge of honour

He reversed the clock far too much by mistake that he actually had the car un-built!

;D ;D ;D

(I'm probably the only one that thinks it's funny :()
