    avoid ebay seller retrocarspares

    hello peeps thought i would advise you all to avoid ebay seller retrocarspares because i won an item off him and and he never sent the item, probley because he wasnt happy that the item sold for 99p ( gearstick with rod ) he also said that it got lost in the post which i dont believe as he dont have any proof of posting and i have sent and recieved over 200 items and have not had and items go missing .
    im not the only 1 that has had a problem with this seller he said that some1 else had a missing parcel at the same time. however he has issued a refund

    Re: avoid ebay seller retrocarspares

    I thought this name rang a bell.. I was watching a few of his items a few weeks back. He had a gt tuning header tank and it went for £80! I asked a few questions about one of his items and he did reply which was decent of him

    This has made me worried now... Iv won 2 items on eBay for 00.99 but the shipping was £68, I'm worried I mite get a massive custard pie?!? Lol.. Wel just have to see

I was also watching a few items of hes and see the gear nob with gear rod i have also come across parts for .99 and won them as well and had the seller saying he wont sell them to me with no reseive put on the listting as well i think its wrong and not right that sellers can do this and thing all is fair !

    If there's no reserve and they go for 00.99 it's just the way it goes they shouldn't be able to refuse to send? That will surely give them bad feedback?

    Iv bought a custom boost pipe from this guy who lives in dingli! Iv paid for the shipping which was 59 for that part, I sent him a msg after saying when do you think I will receive them and he hasn't replied!!

    Totally agree mate, I'd do the same, if this guy doesn't send my parts what would I do get in touch with eBay? I would get a refund wouldn't I? Il get a flight over and kick his head in if I don't

    Re: avoid ebay seller retrocarspares

    ebay hasnt said anything. he gave me a refund so had to settle for that .
    the last time i had a message from him he told me he`s trying to start a business up.
    as i put in his feedback item never recieved and no prove of postage. (he told me 3 days after the auction ended that it got lost ) so he more than likely didnt send it probley because he wanted more money for the item i won
