Have had similar (although not identical ) experiences. It can be frustrating , especially when you are in a hurry. :evil: They seem to be slow to correct faults whether it is theirs or yours but in my experience they have ALWAYS done the right thing in the end and I have never lost out. Hope this is reassuring. :smile:

do you think it could be something todo with my daliy limit of £300?

and its £310 lol

Could well be. It's all electronically controlled of course so there's no way discretion can be used. It's just a machine doing its job. A bit clinical I suppose. If you still need the tyres it might work if you order two at a time. Surely the seller would combine postage into one consignement. Good luck :smile:

Possibly E-bay are a bit fed up as they had to pay 30 million pounds out this week to the makers of top brands as they have been letting copies / fake perfumes and hand bags to be sold on there site.

I really felt sorry for them.
