Anyone else bought items from people breaking Saabs on here?
Not naming any sellers, but I bought a set of 314mm brake callipers which came very quickly, but will need a lot of cleaning.
Then bought a rear parking sensor kit which came very quickly too, but when I had it fitted, found that the loom had been sliced through, and so I had to pay for a new loom which doubled the cost of the bits. Not too impressed with that, but it's on the car now and works.
Last week, I was talking to a guy who was breaking a 2003/4 Aero, and who told me he had the 13 speaker system with the extra amp and the 6x9 rear speakers. So I bought them, paid with PayPal, and after a couple of days, couldn't get hold of him again. Now he did say he was breaking the car in his own time outside of his own job hours, but every message have sent him in the last few days has not been read from what I can tell, yet he has been offering other bits and pieces to people in the group in the mean time.
Am I in the process of being ripped off, and is there any comeback on these Facebook groups? I wanted to message the admin, but can't find the option to do so. This guy put the same ad in Saab Nuts, All Saab, and Saab 9-3 Owners UK groups.
I messaged him about other potential bits I may be interested in, but have had no contact from him for about 5 or 6 days now.
I may have got it all wrong, and the stuff could turn up tomorrow.....but.....you know that nagging feeling that you may have given some toad 70 quid for nothing......
