LOL...
i just coudlnt be arsed to argue he was beign cocky tryign to make up 5hit that its only available from ebay and only can be delivered.
his loss i will go elsewhere, just though it was kinda funny. a big company with 3 diff prices on the same tyre. when you sniff a company tryign to scam you, you just stay well clear i think. companys shoul dhave set prices. not what they want them to be so the sales man gets commision prob

his auction is £48 plus £8 delivery making it £56 in total...............he's told you that you can have them for £55 delivered. Other than that just win his auction for £48 and when he asks for payment just say I'll collect them and give you £48, which is what i won them for

Nothing wrong with different prices for different markets, thats called price discrimination and is perfectly legal. Compare the price of a train journey to arrive in London at 9 with one to arrive at 3. Same train but its more expensive to arrive at the beginning of the working day.
The fact that you can't collect blatently says to me that they're making profit on the delivery of course, which does mean that they're misrepresenting the prices in the auction.

ian, i can understand you pay double train fair before 9 as the train company know ppl goto work before then, and therefore can charge the working.
but in this case how can they give me that stupid price just because i phoned.
actually there dear price still isnt that expensive also got quoted £108 today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
