Interesting.... how'd you find that out?
I have a friend with access to bmw systems, so when I am looking for a certain part number I get him to see which dealer has a lot of them in stock, and go from there.

That's actually a good point :rofl: I felt better about it when Mike inferred it was legit... Maybe Mike is Yan Yan Zhao :rofl: :poke:

I joke, although I did notice the advert was updated after my purchase stating it was "Supplied by STRATSTONE BMW DONCASTER Authorised retailer." But sadly was still a scam.

I'm not doubting your contact, I'm doubting your post inferring this particular surplus of stock was legitimate.

Well worth a try either way, so thanks Jamie :thumbsup:

Did you have to contact eBay or PayPal to get the refund? Mine is still showing as pending and it's showing up on my credit card as payment taken.

Contact PayPal, not eBay. I phoned PayPal and they refunded my transactions as I was on the phone. Now just awaiting the return to the method of payment used, in my case, my card so will take about 5 days, but at least it's showing as refunded :)

Yup, fell through. Worth a go!

I didn't see any value in a bit of typed text saying the parts were supplied by BMW. Not worth a jot! I hope everyone gets their money back okay :thumbsup:
