Thanks for the comments guys (both on this forum and by email). I agree about ending the auction, but frankly I would have been happy enough to simply have received an apology (if it was in fact an honest mistake). I also found it interesting that a private auction would be held for 2 rally wheels [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img] I voiced my concerns here so that others within this "community" would see what transpired and make their own decision about whether to do business with him or not in the future. I put a lot of faith in the members of this site and would buy parts/cars from many just based on their reputations here ( for example Motown, Whitetop, Charley etc. all appear to be upfront and honest based on the exchanges that I have read about on the forum). At the end of the day, it's no biggie. Just two rally wheels I'll have to find somewhere else and a vendor that I wouldn't buy from. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/
