I was interested in possibly buying a set of 'carbon fibre door handels' so asked for pics of said items last week. As soon as I did this the thread just went dead:

I see the same guy sticking up the same ad, only this time the price has gone up by £15 :

Since asking in the first thread why he started another, he's u2u'd me saying nothing apart from 'are you interested'. I replied with, yes - pictures. I know that I'm staying well away, but just wanted to make anyone that was interested as well aware of the dodginess of the whole thing.

He replied to me within about 3 hours of me u2uing asking for pics. He's been on since I replied and he's not got back to me.

Quite gutted as I wanted some real carbon fiber door handels for £45... no wait, £60.
