... on the auction for the Estate.
The last hour is always the most exciting - but I may end up pulling it early, dependant on hearing back from an OOFer ;D
-
Best of luck Bud!! Fingers crossed for ya :y :y :y
-
I admit to being one of the watchers 'cos i'm nosey. Hope it get's a final spurt if you don't "pull" it....Guy :D
-
Bit of luck you will get a couple of competitive bidders and add 50% the the bid standing 1 hour before.
Despite the terms & conditions ("You bid, you buy"), they will still kick the tyres and haggle though >:(
Good luck.
-

They won't - cause they'll be told thanks but no thanks and it will go to someone who wants it. No lack of interest, here :D
-
wow that's good money :y
mind you that's also a bargain for someone, get the screen sorted and they are well away

Dunno why some folk frown on sniping. I do it, an auctions an auction & a bids a bid from start to finish...simple.
Fasted finger first!!!!!!!!!! :D

Just you sort out the 'new' estate and we will sort your saloon out :y
-
this is the most exciting and nerve wracking ebay i ever been involved in... but do i need to bid james or what? :-/ :-/
-
See PM mate.
Bid as high as you like but we will still settle on the price we agreed ;)
Just need to make sure you are the auction winner :-X
-
just got the PM james, sorry. damn those final 12 hours!!!
hehe 8-) 8-) time
-
I'm watching too ;D ;D ;D we can all bid once and make sure it goes at the right price james
-
everybody watching...... it's like a automobile voyeur show.... or something! 8-) 8-) 8-)
-
Lol, Dave is going to place a crazy bid and win it :y
-
Lol, if your aircon ices the screen then its faulty!
The expansion valve should limit the condensator to 4 deg minimum! :y
-
this is the most exciting and nerve wracking ebay i ever been involved in... but do i need to bid james or what? :-/ :-/
As im sure James already knows it would be cheaper for him if you bought it too make sure yours was the highest bid....and then fill a mutual agreement not too go ahead with the sale....all fee"s reimbursed by ebay. :y
-
Ain't insider dealing "ILLEGAL" ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
-

Result....
Mark, now is NOT the time to point out faults that the aircon is too cold ;D
-
too cold? how's that faulty aircon???!!
i'm sure if ebay looked on here they may spank us. or indeed question a stupid bid followed by a cancellation..
however they're so busy they probably can't be bothered so sillyness away.
dippy by name, dippy by nature [smiley=laugh.gif] [smiley=laugh.gif]
-
Ain't insider dealing "ILLEGAL" ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Not at all - he bids high, then says "opps the aircon is a bit too cold" - and as a goodwill gesture I knock £xx off ;)

-

-
First time I have ever been rooting for someone else to win !!!!
-
lol. i'm aware of auctions where people bid a million and then it was perfectly fine for it to be cancelled as it was defined "an unlikely genuine bid"
;D ;D

First time I have ever been rooting for someone else to win !!!!

Make sure you change the cambelt and tensioners immediately.......James has probably fitted one of those 2nd hand ones of ebay! ;D :D
-
And you can get your local Tesco in the back. Can't do that with a Corsa.
Good job guys. A pleasure to watch it all unfold.
-
lol. now the stories come out.
got your PM Jue :y
at this rate i may have 3 working miggies before the end of the month! Yikes!!

an yes the corsa (which is my other halfs anyway) is a sweet little thing but i'm more than ready for my own reliable wheels again!
good to know the OOFers are watching!
-
Stories my foot - it's a genuine Vx cambelt kit, brand new only weeks ago :y

now now Debs are you casting aspersions on my new friend James?!
i don't want a happy ending to become dippy!! lol.
So now, what's the difference in driving these estatamathingies to nice 4 door jobbies?!
-
Well now you asked mate! They are like 'submarines' Cool though! Dont listen to the weirdos ;D ;D
James is one cool guy and is as honest as they come :y :y
-
Stories my foot - it's a genuine Vx cambelt kit, brand new only weeks ago :y
I must not take the 'michael' outa James anymore on this thread :-X ......or else he might not wanna help me out anymore when my cambelt needs changing ;D Not that it does anytime soon..... :)
-

Honest mate !! He is a straite a a dye (but they aint straite! ;D)
Got a good buy there :y
-
So now, what's the difference in driving these estatamathingies to nice 4 door jobbies?!
Probably not alot with a 2.0 :) :) :)
Be easier to back up to Tesco before you load it all up.
You now have a place on the back to recycle 50% of the knackered wiper blades from the front.
You also have a place where a pet doggy will self-load.
Oh, and the BEST place to be in a car when you're a kid. (Probably get you nicked these days...)

Couldnt gaet a better seller than James :y :y

the number of times you're bigging up James i'm beginning to think you have a 'special' relationship. ;D ;D Seriously tho, after being stung by an unscrupulous OOFer for parts a while back, it's good to be part of the proper side of the OOF!!
