This looks identical to the fuel pump I have removed from the car, but the advert states Corsa B rather than Corsa C. Is the same pump used for both cars?.....I have offered £10 which the seller has accepted including P and P.

you've enjoyed the job so much that you want to buy the cheapest, non branded pump ,from a seller based in China .
I hope it turns up quickly  ,so you can fit the first pump of many

I'm thinking of selling the mighty Corsa.

No need to spend more than necessary.

Unaware it may come from the land of the slitty eye though.

OK 
scroll to the bottom of the listing .....

Business seller information
OUTONG AUTO SPARE PARTS.,LTD
ruibiao dai
Dai Ancestral Temple Baoyi Tang xia
325204 Wenzhou
China
though it does have a UK VAT number showing 

shipping "Economy Delivery (Other Courier 5 days)"  should mean it's drop shipped from a UK warehouse
Item location:   Walsall, United Kingdom

sometimes Ebay sellers tell fibs 

it states "delivery On or before Mon. 18 Jan" though ,so there's that in your favour 

you could of had one delivered and fitted by now ,had you used my original links on another thread and had it listed,
possibly even sold to some spotty ,unsuspecting teenager by now

don't forget to show the buyer where you "welded" the scuttle ,fitting the battery

Would you buy a used car from this man? 

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

You can have it for a couple of grand, Dave.

Just needs an MOT.

The women will be all over you.

That line doesn't quite work when it comes from a scouser.

[dave the builder]

2000 Gambian Dalasi I assume you mean ,which is about £28.50

Just needs an MOT.

OK you need to deduct £56 form the £28.50 for the MOT
which means you would owe me £27.50 (if i decided not to haggle ,which I always do when buying a car)

The women will be all over you.

Hardly a selling point 
I have women all over me as it is   
wanting jobs doing

Don't be such a tight bastard.

You're a builder.......you charge £2000 to clip a bit of loose guttering into place.

Tight yes ,but my birth certificate clearly states in the name of father section "some soldiers" 

guttering is important, if it leaks ,water can wash away ground around the foundation.
subsequent underpinning and making good, redecoration etc can cost tens of thousands 
therefore, my repair skills justify the reasonable charges 

It's not cheap buying a ladder ,rusty van and calling yourself a builder you know

Seriously though.......a good builder or DIYer can be worth his weight in gold.

I added 3 complete bathrooms to another house. Sorted out the the flow of the water and it's escape route. The only thing I paid for was a qualified electrician.

Anything I can do myself I will do myself.

I'll let you know when i've saved up enough pocket money to buy a ladder

Great 

though I do make used to make  a fair bit fixing DIY and failed attempts
