Hope you get your money back, sickening stuff.
"Sorry I haven't had a chance to email you all day, never guess what happened mate, left the alloys in the garden overnight, some thieving pricks gone and robbed them
LMAO Great story that.
Had a similar thing once, my mate wanted a Discovery bullbar on ebay, he messaged the guy and came to a private price until the seller realised that was too cheap and asked for more than his ebay buy it now price. My mate took a stance and asked me to 'buy it now' on my account which I did. That evening I got a brilliantly elaborate and sincere email explaining of his joy that his item sold, but to then realise that some pikey stole it from his garden, so he had to issue a refund.
Minutes later my mate got an email asking if he still wanted it!
