DONT buy this!
« on: 08 February 2012, 15:52:33 »
any one thinking about buying a omega ,
DONT buy this one : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/160730651735?ssPageName=STRK:MEBOFFX:VRI&_trksid=p3984.m1427.l2661

I won the car a couple of weeks ago, When i went to collect the car i checked it over, i could not belive what i saw,
thick oil in water, radio not working, heaters not working,oil leaking all over the place , bottom end sounds like is was knocking, and that was just a few things i checked. also romanian people selling and could not understand what i was telling them. I Reported to ebay.
 I cant belive they have put it back on ebay ...

I doubt that, why would he put it on ebay with all those problems in the first place without saying about the probs...

Surely thats why the feedback system is there. How come he's got 100% feedback, didn't you leave any?

I bet its one your bidding on and want to get it cheap so your trying to put people off :P ;D

the system has changed so it's almost impossible to leave negative feedback.......   


for example,   I "sold"  a Mac Laptop before Xmas.



for which i never got paid.....

the buyer just dicked me about.....   

however,   because of the system ,  i could only leave positive feedback, or no feedback at all.

disrathersgusted or what... ?
