Hopefully solid, but I think it could go both ways.

Good luck

You should ask the seller, not us, as most of us, except Ron don't have a crystal ball. It could be either as the change over date was about then.

I obviously thought the seller might be asleep, I was not asking for a crystal ball just some knowledge.(thank you v6hilux for your response but if you do not value your time why waste mine)

What can we do as readers of your question?



1 - We don't have the car that you are buying.

2 - There is 2 possible options to your question.

3 - I obviously wasted my time in suggesting you ask the current owner to tell you the answer.

4 - You are expecting far too much and I bet you wouldn't pay for the correct answer, as you sound like a H/C customer being from Newy??????? (see below)

5 - You are a "member of the public" and as a member of the public myself, I hate dealing with "members of the public"! Really Really Really, I DO Hate IT!!

6 - If you don't have ALL THE INFORMATION, why are you bidding on A "BLACK HOLE" when it comes to eBay.

7 - The easiest way to get rid of rubbish without paying Tip or Removalist fees is to put it on ebay with little info.

8 - I Know people like you want to pay $20 max for something that should sell for $1000 private and a dealer would want $2000 for.

9 - You will want your money back after you inspect and pay for it and take delivery.

10 - It is is advertised As-Is, but still want the option of a Money-back-guarantee.

11 - You see a picture, make a bid, then read the description.

12 - You want to pay with PayPal, even though the seller didn't offer it to start with.

13 - When you advertise on ebay, you say you live in Newcastle, but you actually live in Cesnock!

14 - You expaect free delivery to Newcastle, and hope the seller won't mind going that extra "5 mins" to Cesnock to deliver!

1- that because i bought it not you

2- if i thought there was only one option i would not have asked

3- yes you did as i did not want to disturb the owner at 20:45.

4- i have already paid.

5- members of the public?

6- i was not bidding a black hole ( region of space in which the gravitational field is so powerful that nothing can escape after having fallen past the event horizon) i thought i was bidding on a toyota 4runner. But if you happen to see any black holes on ebay would you please PM me as i am interested in the space market.

7- that can be true and it can also be the best place to pick up a bargain, as i was not questioning my purchase i was just researching.

8-i know you may have bought last girl friend on ebay for $20 and thought she was worth two thousand but we dont all see it this way.

9- its already paid.

10- nobody ask for money back.

11- correct.

12- the seller did offer pay pal.

13- cessnock is about 54ks from newcastle, if you need to share a bad experience about cessnock this a safe place and i promise i will not tell anbody.

14- arrrrr no.
