Exactly. Wouldnt be saving much and ebay isnt the best choice!

yeah...i still go by the general rule of ebay.

if it involves moving parts, dont buy it.

there's plenty of ways to convert to five lug...but that shouldnt be one of them.

Dousan_PG · 12-06-2007, 11:24 AM

I believe he can post an ebay link since this isn't a for sale ad.

But what do I know. I'm probably wrong...

*HaLo* · 12-06-2007, 11:48 AM

I saw another thread with an ebay link removed in the Chat section. I will get clarifications.

It can go either way. Regardless, the OP should do some searching.

Thread name should be changed quality and ebay cant be in the same thread.

Ebay is a gamble, not how I like to buy parts. Some good companys sell on ebay but they also are reputable companys outside of ebay. I could give a shit less about rep its over rated and shouldnt even be there.

thats what I agree on! , you just gotta know what you are buying.
or if you have the cash go ahead and test it out!
but yea, i usually look for specific parts and brands..
I miss the time when EGAY was
all about people selling used parts, and there were hardly any large companies selling the thousands of the same product..
you could always find what you wanted used, or new but for good prices.. now its like just going into online stores.
probably less than 15% of the items there now are actually from regular people!

portion · 12-07-2007, 01:55 AM

yea well main reason is that its either a set of these which has new oem bearings etc.. than a used set of rear hubs for $150

hijack3d · 12-07-2007, 02:30 AM

Eh... I work for a perf. parts distributor and we use ebay to push stock that's been sitting forever. The stuff we have if definately genuine, and sometimes we'll need to move stock that's been sitting for years and actually lose money on it just to move it. I wouldn't knock ebay totally. We're not the only company that does this. There's a lot of very reputable companies that sell threw ebay (or even use ebay as their online store).

I can't believe there is still confusion about this. ebay links were only prohibited in for sale threads, not as general information. some people misinterpreted the rule and thought ebay links were banned everywhere on zilvia, and this misconception still exists today.
