Breaking GP on Ebay

Looks like a Gp is going to be destroyed, how sad, looks like its water damaged!

Do a search on Ebay for Mini Gp

Seriously Avoid

seller can't provide specific pictures.
Insists on a immediate deposit of 50%, even if attempting to arrange same day collection.
Won't divulge any contact details until payment sent, etc.

quoted v cheap prices:
front seats £250 including delivery
steering wheel/airbags=£100 including delivery
front brake calipers and discs=£120 including delivery

Scam

I emailed him the other day, he has no paypal cause it was hijacked, but he would accept a personal cheque, bank transfer or money order. Or I could go into a barclays bank by 12pm friday, and he would have parts delivered by courier for saturday.

Im sorry, but no way could he take the front brakes all off, boxed up and sent over to NI in one day. And all for £150, I dont think so. Dodgy, things been floating in sewage anyway, eugh!

And as said his history on ebay is one month old and has only bought cheap items.
