Another fake T-5R on ebay - Page 3

bobbych · Apr 11th, 2011, 12:19

if a few of us report it again, it will get pulled again, and he may get the message

Just send him a link to this thread, then he will know that he cant get away with this.

I already did link him this thread but he claimed a 'volvo engineer' had told him it was a T-5R lol

I see with this second listing he has just created a new user name. Before it was thewoodworm2011 and now its stuart.stu

What a pillock!

I would like think anyone buying would know the difference

Tsuyoi · Apr 11th, 2011, 15:43

Problem is though, not everyone does!

Some people see the 250BHP and go blind and hand over the cash for what they think is an R.... then they come along and join here and think WTF!!!

I know before I bought mine (Not and R mind you!) I lurked about on here for months getting info, pestering people, reading articles etc before buying and I still do lurk about, pester and read because we all have problems with our motors at some point! Fact is people on here 99% of the time will be genuine and honest and this may not be what the seller (or buyer!) in this case wants to hear!

Ho hum, rant over... back to me 'ole!

The listing has apparently been removed, can't say if the seller or Ebay removed
it.

Didn't I read somewhere this morning it was re-listed?

If so, may as well bid £100,000 for it, when the auction finishes, refuse it on the basis its a fake and does not match the description details lol

Tsuyoi · Apr 11th, 2011, 16:00

Nah it's still there:-

Tsuyoi · Apr 11th, 2011, 16:01

Must say though I am tempted...

Tsuyoi · Apr 11th, 2011, 16:01

... since I missed out on that £10,000 R a week or so ago!
