Well it was a V5C, a chassis plate and a collection of tax discs for sale for £100, with a note roughly saying 'buy quickly being as ebay for some reason seems to remove these items'bmcecosse wrote:Hahahahaha - now it shows brake discs for the Minor -for only £128....presumably a complete conversion kit??![]()

Wonder WHY he feared it to be removed quickly?
Some DVLA legislation stating it as illegal?
Rochdale Martyr he ain't!

Re: This is getting ridiculous!
I just cannot believe some people, they seem to be trying to get away with it by listing it in a way that will comply with ebay rules. Yet still acknowledging it is not a done thing as they will remove it after the first bid! Though I have also reported it so hopefully something will be done.WPR678B wrote:Its back ........

You would do better by telling Mr Salmond that you will not vote for independence unless he scraps the MOT.bmcecosse wrote:Oh it's 1965 -no good then. I'm looking for a pre 1960 Trav logbook so I don't have the annoying MOT hassle every year.....![]()

Re: This is getting ridiculous!

As the id was for sale - indicating the vehicle as scrapped - there was littlelittlepiggy wrote:dont you think instead of bitching behind the sellers back why didnt anyone have the balls to message me and say it is wrong and stop moaning like a load of old women the listing has been removed and will not be going back on
point in messaging the seller if he was unable to understand a V5C!
Bit like a monkey placing a Stephen King book on eBay!!

Re: This is getting ridiculous!
Maybe because we thought that the seller would know about:littlepiggy wrote:dont you think instead of b***hing behind the sellers back why didnt anyone have the balls to message me and say it is wrong and stop moaning like a load of old women the listing has been removed and will not be going back on
and then following its removal from ebay there surely must have been an explanation stating why it was removed and so if the seller was not aware of the matter this should have cleared it up. So by relisting it again it seems to make it look as if the seller is prepared to flout the law and so no matter how many people contact them about the issue no change will be brought about and anyway in order not cause an argument over the situation the best way to deal with a problem with an item on ebay is to report it which was done:POMMReg wrote: DVLA legislation stating it as illegal?
WPR678B wrote: I have reported it
So I would like to know how anyone can claim no one did anything but complain, it is just it was done in a manner that follows the EBAY procedure in order to police such items being sold as well as those selling them in order to stop it happening again where as if an individual had contacted the seller there is a good chance that they will recieve abuse from the seller and the item more than likely will remain for sale. So I am afraid to say that I can not see the validity in your argument, or is that just me being too presumptious?qwerty165 wrote:I have also reported it

As your christian and surnames are listed, you are placing yourself in a very precarious position.
You might do well to lie low.

Re: This is getting ridiculous!
Who am I to know what you will or will not do! I only assess the situation that I see before me and react to it how I see best fits the situation and I do believe it is better to rational when dealing with any situation and so go through the appropriate authority rather than take a chance and end up recieving abuse for it.littlepiggy wrote:it is not an argument it is fact!! you only had to message me and no ebay did not give an explanation to why it was removed this forum is a joke you people should be looking after each other and not stabbing each other in the back like i said you only had to message me but no the top and bottom of it is you all like to bitch and moan and "report to ebay" laughing about it instead of doing the right thing and pointing out where a person went wrong
