He strikes again!!

[ThomasBrentnall]

Was just browsing ebay for wheels as I want some turini's and saw these.

0.001mph (or whatever his username is) strikes again!

 

[JLK]

I saw this, what's wrong with him?

Those arrows are so retarded its unreal.

 

[Bluebeard]

How much???!!

 

[@Spoonie]

What's the problem?

 

[imprezaworks]

Not sure if srs ^.

Price- yeah ok.
Arrows- Really?

 

[ThomasBrentnall]

I saw this, what's wrong with him?

Not a clue what's wrong with him but he seems to devalue everyone elses stuff, and then ask silly money for stuff he's selling.

What's the problem?

Have a search, plenty of threads about him

 

[McGherkin]

It's OK though, they're ultra rare.

 

[GrahamS]

I particularly enjoy the very specific price as if the extra £1 to make it a round £15 would have been a step too far.

 

[Bluebeard]

What's the problem?

He's a c**t.

 

[imprezaworks]

Oh yeah, and that.

 

[AK]

Why has he pictured 2 different cars?

 

[SC03OTT]

Starved of oxygen at birth it seems.

 

[Heez]

Those arrows get me every time.

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

£89 postage on top of a randomly generated price.

Brilliant.

I'm a big fan of not helping stupid people, so if you're stupid enough to buy anything from this guy, that's your problem.

However, checking out the feedback, it seems approximately one person a quarter falls for it.

Not sure I could live on £2k a year but if he gets those amazing red arrows are free and eBay doesn't charge for using them, his overheads must be minimal.

 

[-Danman-]

What a douche.

 

[Sunglasses_Ron]

Woof woof. What a c**t.

 

[Steven103]

£603. Oh.

 

[chriscummins7]

FLOL @ the arrows.

It's as though he expects people not to know what the wheels are. Really?! Someone is going to bid on an advert which clearly states is just for wheels, and expect to get the full car.

Idiot.

 

[Knuckles]

Has anyone seen his ultra rare 197 engine for £1800? "Never raced, tracked or most importantly, owned by a club member" tosser

He's got an advert for a Trophy engine too and says about how very very rare they are... and then says he has 2. LOL

Is there anything that can be done to stop him ripping people off? Like report him for false advertising?

my gf had a listing removed because the black bag she was selling looked brown?!

 

[DaveDreads]

The thing is though if people are willing to pay 3 times what the parts are worth without researching them first,
then all he's doing is making money out of morons.

Is he actually saying anything in his adverts that are blatant lies?

 

[Dan...]

f**k! You could probably get them brand new from Renault at that price!

I love the fact he's taken time and effort to add arrows to the pictures but yet he's made no effort to take pictures of the wheels he is actually selling (assuming he isn't selling any of the wheels in the pictures taken of two different Clio's)

How is he ripping people off. If I sell a wheel nut for £500 and someone is happy to pay that then that's their problem.

Iirc, you need to actually sell stuff to people to rip them off?

Ripping people off may have been a bit extreme.

'exploiting the less informed'

ive stopped reading his adverts but

'ultra rare', and the obscene prices are very incorrect.

and this

"Check the 8+ pictures of the TROPHY alloys above"



...is, is he paying the buyer?

COLLECTION ONLY dont have the time to post PAYMENT

 

[robbie1988]

Here's a reply from him when I was looking for some Trendlines, utter tosser. Even if I wanted to spend twice what there worth I wouldn't, as apparently they are out of my price range......


Dear **************,

sold out of this for £1450 we have another but probably out ov ur price range as these parts go overseas to the top money spenders in eastern Europe

- bluechipsparesltd

 

[imprezaworks]

Utter tit

 

[Spinksy]

He wanted £450 + postage for a BARE front bumper (182) not so long back... Then £75 on top to pallet it then plus postage on top!

His justification: 'it's in NEAR-unmarked condition'

Wtf is near unmarked? Is if marked or isn't it? Never mind you can get one and have it painted for cheaper than that tbqfh

 

[Kyle 86]

Haha what a toby. I love the arrows

 

[SC03OTT]

Does he sell the stuff? If so, surely he's the one laughing all the way to the bank.

 

[Bluebeard]

His eBay account suggests he sells 2 things a year or something ridiculous.

 

[LiamR172]

We should all bid on them and get them up a few million.. then not pay

 

[Owen92]

Think he's an absolute prick, so his advert has mysteriously been reported for attempting to avoid Ebay fees.

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

Currently has 117 items for sale .. some 'multiples of' as well.

Sells 4 things a year.

The mind boggles.

 

[MarcB]

I would rather use my trophy with no bumper than buy of this prick!
I have contacted him the past for parts and it was just crazy prices, Came on here and seen people willing to sell the same part in better nick for a 1/4 of the price.

 

[midge]

lol, i remember when he (and other members on here for that matter) was telling me its ok to change the i.d of a car.
