Think ive been conned on an ED30 Wheel off fleabay
« on: September 07, 2009, 07:02:27 pm »
Help!

Thought i was buying an ED30 wheel because that was what they said it was off but......

My original wheel has CH029 with ET51 and a VW logo

Flebay wheel says CH024 ET54 and Audi logo.

Not a correct colour match either!

Any ideas on this wheel from ebay?

Right gutted :sad1:

Thats one of the 8" wide ones isnt it? As fitted to the A3. If you can find another, fit them to the rear for the staggered look.

Sorry but if it's not what was described in the ad then you have grounds to open a dispute and ask for a refund.

Paid by Paypal, so hopeful.

Advert said it was off an Edition 30!!

Is it an Audi wheel?

The ad is very misleading but TBH there a lot of clues this isn't an Edition 30 wheel like the offset and the part number starting 8PO.

But you do have a case for a refund IMHO.

well, who knows what they came of you only have his word, it could be someone did the staggered thing as above, or they had been conned too, or the seller didnt really know what an edition 30 was etc etc, best thing to do is contact him, if no luck just do a case through paypal, its no use to you
