Yes I know I can't understand why he sent the first pic saying it was an ed30 and then sent that pic saying its a before photo. Clear it's not as first pic not a ed30 and secondly the second engine bay has loads of mods. He says he going to report me to the forum!!!. What for telling the truth!!!!

My point exactly. I asked him to explain why he has been lying he is ignoring me now. This is why it's so hard to trust anyone buying stuff on forums.... How do I go about this shall I publish the conversation and user name???

Two different engine bays rights there! The coolant bottle is a different colour for starts and there is no catch in the first.

Hi guys this seems a little odd, this is my car in question, I have a twintake off my edition30 which I am selling, I sent a picture and now my private information between the 2 conversations has been compromised. Very strange as I know what car I own I know what parts I'm selling. I have also bought many items off other members so don't know what bow is going on about?

It does look like the front panel and the scuttle panel are completely different between the pictures, unless these have been changed too?

I think you need to get your facts right before you start slagging people off on a public forum with my private details! As I have previously said I own an edition 30 not a s3 it's getting a little tedious explaining myself to someone I don't know. So once again can the moderators please remove my personal details off this thread. Thanks.

Facts right??? You send me a photo of an audi S3 engine bay saying it's an Ed30 and then make me out to be someone with no knowledge. You spend all afternoon lying to me then instead of just explaining you had no photos of it or whatever the reason you have lied for you try making me look an idiot.... The photos do not lie I told you if you explain why you have lied I will remove it but no you can't explain can you.

It's easy to see who's been lying here, the photo has come off of Google and was actually for sale on this forum a year ago... Here's the link.

I can't see any personal info on this thread.

Simple way to determine is to take a picture with your username and date next to the item.

Although looks like that picture is a different car....

I think the problem is a little lie has turned into lots of lies probably find out the other photo which is actually an ed30 isn't his either lol why can't buying things be simple anymore. I wasn't trying to cause trouble by starting this thread I was clearly being taken for a mug.

Bow,

Unfortunately some forum members have been scammed recently so i would HIGHLY recommend satisfying yourself the seller is genuine and isn't going to do a runner with your cash. The best way of doing this is to ask questions about the item, ask for photos of the item including form name and if you don't know the guy ONLY pay by paypal and pay the charges. Pay by Paypal gift and Bank transfer and you have no comeback.

I think your intention was to expose somebody trying to pull a fast one and make other forums members aware - nothing else.

Exactly this mate thank god I didn't pay the £290 he was asking as well. He may well turn out to be ok but not looking to good for him at present . So many threads where people being scammed. I mean how stupid do you have to be to believe that's an ed30 in first pic and he is adamant it is then wonders why I start thread and insents I'm an idiot making it all up lol
