Metterz123 has since emailed me saying parts will be sent out and has refunded me 8 quid as an apology for taking a long time to get my parts sent.

Once apon a time a pikey scrap man knocked at my mothers house asking if the dis-used engine block on the front garden was going scrap, if so would the owner take £3 for it. Mother replied "its not mine to touch" but joked "would be nice to see it gone!". He also asked how much i would take for the pitbike in the back garden, little did i know that from my mothers front door the pitbike cannot be seen down the side of the house meaning that he had been there previously.
Next day came and i was selling my corsa so wanted to replace the punctured Momo wheel and take the odd Irmsher softstar off of it for the person buying it, only to find the silver Momo wheel was missing resulting in a missing wheel from my set of 4.
I then noticed that 3 irmsher softstars were missing.
I then realised that a set of brake calipers and pads were missing and also drive shafts with hubs and brand new ball joints which i was supposed to take off to send to rBailey88.
A lesson to be learnt is "send the fucking goods before its too late".
All jokes aside i will send you some more dosh when i have some in my paypal. sorry about the mission.

Yeah true say in a way but a back garden, behind a house with a 300foot front garden would surfice in my mind. I dont think its my fault that someone rolled 4 alloy wheels with tyres on all the way round from the back garden to the road, probably two trips in its self. Then another trip to carry the drive shafts, flanges and discs do you?
Also, i live in a flat and dont think the Mrs would accept the 'might get nicked' story as to why her house is full of greasy car parts. Any back garden should be a 'safe haven' for your own 'personal belongings' if it wernt for gash pikey scrap fuckers!! hate them!.

I'm not saying they are right for taking them, or disputing how long it took them to do it. I was just saying you should have put them somewhere safer, no chance you could have put them in the shed?
