May have pulled off an Evilbay bargain,but have misgivings for the very first time on Ebay.
OK $80 is all I have to loose.

I missed the close of the auction,no bidders.Contacted seller,yes un sold $80 was the deal inc delivery.
I just have that I have been ripped off feeling.Hopefully not,will let you know.

What he means that in the end the rims only cost him $20. He bought the lot for $270 - sold the tyres for $250 leaving himself with the rims for only $20.

A glitch in the Matrix allowed some of us to see the world as it really is, some of us then chose to take the red pills, others took the blue and remained behind happy in nievity.

It's a major conspiracy that I am trying to unravel, keep hitting dead ends.

So far the only conclusion I have is that -

In the 1970's the internet was on trial in the UK & Australia, the purpose was to provide Australians with much needed support & information for the broken down Land Rovers that had started to litter the streets & highways.
The Queen herself came up with the idea.
All the pre 1970 members here are Guinea pigs & have been administered with mind altering drugs to keep them buying genuine Land Rover parts, don't trust them.

Already it has started, Dobbo is trying to cover their tracks, Matrix?
They are the only ones with the pills, Damn you Dobbo.


Goodnight I have said to much already.

Not the matrix..but unix :eek:

Might have something to do with the unix epoch and all time measurements starting from Jan 1 1970 :confused:

Check out the wiki definition here if you don't believe me :p

Young inc might be able to confirm ;)..

There's a secret link between Dobbo and the Queen?


Trust me, I work for a Public service.;)

I'm sure I could find someone to blame.

There's a secret link between Dobbo and the Queen.

Puts this thread (http://www.aulro.com/afvb/general-chat/56082-coroner-finds-off-road-park-management-poses-danger-2.html#post740518) in a whole new light.

Back to Evil bay.....:mad:

The other day we bid on a S3 109" roof and side sections, no reserve, the current bid was $5.00 so seems we werent going to be around at the time the auction ended I put a max bid in of $20.

I looked the next day and I'd lost by 50c, oh well not to worry but looking at who won and the names were very similar, part of which was exactly the same so I looked a bit closer and surprise surprise, I apparently bid my max bid of $20 against my bid of $5.50....:mad:

Looking closer at the bidding history, there had been 2 other bidders and the same had happened to them :mad:

Now this person also had a trailer for sale that also sold and the morning after the auction ended the person who apparently won the roof and the trailer left good feedback......what a joke....did they pick them up over night :mad:

this is the 3rd time this has happened to me, I reported it but nothing will happen.

I wanted the roof not to have to report someone.:mad::mad::mad:

Bloody cheating mongral's, if you want more for something then out a minimum price on it or a reserve price but more important than that, there has been 5 of the same thing on there in the last couple of months and none of them has got over $25 so that is about the going rate, if you want more then try taking it to scrap.
