is a picture from my car when I sold the old wheel on Ebay last year.

The seller didn't buy the item from me. [8|]




 
I had that on 'watch' but decided the cash would be better spent on my TR7V8 instead.

All the best, Paul
 
Only thing I would say is that if you pay by Paypal through eBay and the wheel is not as described then you will get a Full refund.

For extra protection pay your Paypal with your credit card, not a Debit Card and if you have money in your Paypal account transfer it to your bank first so all the payment is taken from the credit card.

 
Yup, a seller with low feedback and no picture of the actual item - Caveat Emptor!!!

Even better, do NOT put bank account details on Paypal - 2 friends both had major problems because of that. I only have my credit card on Paypal, and so any cash balance is either held on my Paypal account, or where it is a refund of something I've bought, it gets automatically paid back into my credit card account.

I've gone the other way and will never have a credit card on Paypal again after twice having to cancel cards due to fraudulent payments immediatley after using Paypal.

I had a credit card that I ONLY used for Paypal, and after making a payment I was hit next day with two frauds over £1000 which luckily the CC company spotted straight away.

A few weeks later after it was all sorted and with a new card with new numbers I made another Paypal payment and was hit with another large fraud straight away. Took ages to sort out that time as I think the CC company started to suspect me [8|]

I do believe that between them Ebay and Paypal have contributed to the massive escalation in internet fraud and opened up a lovely market place for selling on stolen goods.

I still buy stuff when I spot a bargain though [;)]
 
Be aware that I asked the seller if the steering wheel comes with a boss and it doesn't.

His description says "it comes with wheel only" rather than no boss included. Both the same but one doesn't make the buyer aware [:mad:]
 
The boss is useless on its own and difficult and expensive to buy separately.

People who split these are clowns who should be avoided.
