  • Best and worst E-Bay buy of the year?

    Thought might be interesting to see what people have been happy to get either a serious bargain or rare find (plus side) or wish they hadn't won (minus side)

    My best buy was a RS alloy advertised with tyre, reading the description it had a good CN36 on it, was well happy to win it for £15 + £11 postage
    Has refurbed well and will sit in the spare wheel well.

    Worst buy (initially at least) was the car itself but all sorted now thanks to Mark who did a superb restoration of the shell.

      Just bought a Mitsubishi pick up. I pick it up on Saturday coming.
      It could qualify for either best or worst. Time will tell

        Mitsi pick up

        Hope the engine dont throw a rod or crank break.Mate of mine has a garage and he has fitted 3 short motors to 3 differant Mitsi T Diesels at about 60 k ,all because the crank has broken or they have put a rod through the side

        my best buy,hopefully is a d Link wireless modem ,brand new for £13 including post.Was going to go out and buy one for about £90 from the shops

                My best but would have to be although not car related was my garage consumer unit. Priced one in B&Q was 80 quid, priced screwfix direct , was 50 quid. Got one on the bay for 22.50 with 3.50 postage , arrived in 2 days and the sparkie that came to wire it up couldn`t believe thats all i had paid for it as he said it was a really good one !!!! .

                As for a bad buy can`t really say i`ve had one
