I bought a steering wheel and the airbag was not screwed into it. It fell out and scratched all the steering controls. I gave him the benefit of the doubt until now....

Why would the wires be cut and then rejoined. This sounds some thing like a wrecker would do to remove stuff and then realise it is sell-able.

Have you messaged him asking if he is going to help you out?? What was the response if any?

yes i remember a few concerns but he is a premium member and claims they are his items and he is not a wrecker or business.

I guess the thing was the stuff he was selling was reasonably priced which suggested he was not a wrecker.

While it was of benefit to the general member base it was hard to stop selling from happening.

If people are going to start being disadvantaged then something has to be done about it...

Maybe stuff like this should be worried about more so than the likes of WTR being banned for trivial crap :)

@Ken: Have you sent FitzyMo a PM?

I believe a full refund would be in order.

If the cable did not match the picture he put up of it, I suspect the club would have to warn him on his behaviour.

Thanks Lena.

He very cleverly wrapped up the cable and hid the cut wires at the bottom.

Agreed with Ofey the club should give warning.
