Car ramps & eBay
For what it is worth; I wanted a pair of 2 tonne ramps to enable me to change the rear spheres safely on my Xantia so I had a look at eBay and found that there appeared to be some very inexpensive ramps on offer, so I bid on a couple of pairs. On bidding, the prices rapidy escalated to over £30.00, + P & P and other hassle, etc; took myself off to my local Parts & Accessory shop and there they were, brand new 2 tonne, wide, ramps @£22.40 the pair. Could there be a moral in this story?

I my self have sold a spot lamp for £21. Not bad but the fact is I bought 3 from an auto jumble for only £10. It was hanging around the garge for aver 2 years. Like they say "there's one born every minute".
Have sold all sorts of stuff on E-bay but the last thing was a 4x4 tow bar for only £5. !!!! that's right only a fiver. Was just glad to get rid of it. So what goes round comes round.

I recently had a set of Ferodo brake pads (£25) and a PiperX Vector Air filter (£70) for the sum total of £30 inc P&P![:D]
There was this one time I spent £15 on an immobiliser kit, only to get it and find it was some wire and a switch, to hide under the dash![:I][V]
Some you win[8D]......and some, you get shafted![:(!]
